Scientific Focus
My research focuses on the development of stochastic models and statistical analysis methods for the description and analysis of temporal coordination within individual spike trains and between parallel neuronal recordings. Therefore, I combine (1) theoretical statistical treatment of point processes (e.g. multi-scale change point analysis), (2) stochastic description of relevant firing patterns in empirically observed processes, such as bursts or oscillatory behavior, and (3) statistical analysis of correlations, synchronous oscillation or phase-relations (using e.g. specific Cox processes).
