He has also performed notable work in molecular biophysics, neurotechnology, and neuroplasticity, particularly changes in the brain due to experience and learning.
[1] Svoboda was a professor at the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory between 1997 and 2006 and was a Howard Hughes Medical Institute Investigator.
[4] As a graduate student, Svoboda performed measurements of the tiny steps and forces of single kinesin molecules.
Svoboda's research group studies neuroplasticity by measuring the effects of experience and learning on neural connectivity.
[5] The group also develops experimental methods for studying neural circuits in live animals and in tissues, and is particularly noted for its work in high-resolution optical imaging.
