Research focus: Computer simulations and mathematical modeling of buffered Ca2+ diffusion and the Ca2+-dependent regulation of neurotransmitter release. In particular, investigated different mechanisms of short-term synaptic facilitation. Developed a simulation package for solving the reaction-diffusion problems arising in the study of intracellular Ca2+ dynamics (available from http://web.njit.edu/~matveev/calc.html)

September 1, 1996 - August 30, 1999:
Postdoctoral Research Fellow
Brandeis University
Volen Center for Complex Systems and Physics Department
Research focus: Computer simulations and mathematical modeling of activity-dependent short-term synaptic plasticity effects, in particular the study of the mechanisms and the possible functional roles of synaptic depression and facilitation.
