'''Big picture:''' understand the temporospatial and mechanistic changes in neural activity induced by various anesthetics. Can we recapitulate those with steerable, low latency, closed-loop non-invasive neuromodulation or use this knowledge to drive discovery of novel drugs?

*High-throughput screen of anesthetics (and anesthetic reversal agents) in C.elegans. I could work in parallel in a different organism (e.g. yeast, jellyfish, hydra, sea anemones, corral, bacteria, plants, neuronal explants).
