Daniel Uhlrich is a Professor in the Department of Neuroscience at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. He received his Ph.D. from Brown University. His research focuses on the anatomical and electrophysiological bases of neural processes involved in visual signal modulation and their implications for conditions such as photosensitive epilepsy. Uhlrich's work involves using a combination of neuroanatomical techniques, immunohistochemistry, and electrophysiological recordings to investigate thalamo-cortical circuits and their role in generating brain rhythms during sleep and wakefulness. He aims to understand how these circuits contribute to the perception of visual signals and the modification of brain function under different behavioral states. His studies also explore the thalamic mechanisms that trigger absence seizures in response to visual stimuli. Overall, Uhlrich's research aims to uncover the underlying neural mechanisms that influence sensation and behavior, especially in pathological conditions.
