About me
My background in cognitive neuroscience gave me a varied introduction to the workings of the brain and mind from neurological, psychological, and philosophical perspectives. During my master’s, I investigated the encoding of associative memories using rodent models of drug addiction. My fascination of how hallucinogens perturb normal brain function has lead me to my current PhD project, investigating cortical dynamics under the influence of psychedelic drugs.
My Project
My aim is to combine the use of high-density multi-electrode arrays, widefield imaging, and advanced computational methods to examine brain activity in mice given psychedelic drugs.
