John Guckenheimer     (WEB PAGE) jmg16 @ cornell.edu 565 Malott Hall      607-255-8290   [edit] Faculty associated with: Robert Clewley Department: Mathematics Field: Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Keywords: Computational Neuroscience (13), Mathematical Modeling (14), Motor Systems (13), Mouse (11), Neuromodulation (12) Neuroscience-related courses taught Instructor: MATH 362: Dynamic Models in Biology My research is a blend of theoretical investigation, development of computer methods and studies of nonlinear systems that arise in diverse fields of science and engineering. My current work focuses upon the dynamics of systems with multiple time scales, algorithm development for problems involving periodic orbits and upon applications to the neurosciences, animal locomotion and control of nonlinear systems. I have a long standing collaboration with Ron Harris-Warrick and his laboratory. A new joint project is devoted to the development and anlysis of mathematical models for networks in the mouse spinal cord that control hindlimb locomotion. I am also part of a multi-university reserach program that is studying cockroach locomotion and its neuromuscular control.
