The department of Integrative Neurophysiology (INFlab) focusses on how circuits in the brain give rise to behaviour and cognition. With the research teams we address a wide range of exciting topics in Neuroscience research with the latest techniques.

The INFlab was founded in 2008 by Huib Mansvelder as part of the CNCR and faculty of Earth and Life Sciences at VU University. The INFLab has strong research ties with the VU Medical Center and the Netherlands Institute for Neurosciences in Amsterdam.
The group of Klaus Linkenkaer-Hansen (INF) established a method to estimate excitation/inhibition balance using the theory of critical brain dynamics. By teaming up with the group of Hilgo Bruining (Amsterdam UMC), the method is validated for physiological stratification of autism spectrum disorder.
Biomarker integration for better clinical decision making
Arthur-Ervin Avramiea, Richard Hardstone and colleagues from the team of Klaus Linkenkaer-Hansen (INF) publish in eLife that pre-stimulus phase and amplitude regulation of stimulus processing is maximized when neuronal networks operate in the critical state.
