About

Dr. Takashi Kozai serves as an Associate Professor at the University of Pittsburgh, USA. His research focuses on neurostimulation technology development, particularly the interactions between brain cells and implanted microelectrodes. Recent articles explore spatiotemporal neuron activation, longitudinal electrophysiological changes, and the effects of various interventions on neuronal connectivity and health in the context of chronic implantation.
