About the Lab

Welcome to the Kerr Lab! The Kerr Lab currently consists of Rex Kerr and Nicholas Swierczek; see People for slightly more information. The Kerr Lab has been part of the HHMI Janelia Farm Research Campus since September 2006. Our primary aim is to develop tools that can monitor the activity of the nervous system of the nematode worm Caenorhabiditis elegans. We are also interested in working with other groups at Janelia on behavioral quantification, advanced optics, and image analysis and visualization techniques. More details about ongoing lab projects can be found under Research above.
