Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolTorkel Hafting is an Associate Professor and chair of the Division of Physiology at the University of Oslo with nine years of post-PhD academic experience and a research career stretching back to the early 2000s. He specializes in in vivo electrophysiology and imaging, notably tetrode recordings of entorhinal grid cells and hippocampal place cells in freely moving rats and two-photon/intrinsic imaging of visual cortex in behaving mice. His work bridges systems neuroscience and experimental methods, combining hands-on skills in chronic recordings with advanced optical imaging developed during a postdoc at UCSF. Based in Oslo, he leads a research group that translates circuit-level insights into broader questions of spatial representation and sensory processing. An electrical engineering background and Arctic biology studies hint at an unusual blend of technical rigor and ecological perspective informing his experimental designs.
