SCIENTIFIC INTERESTS AND GOALS

My primary research interests concentrate around clinical neuroscience, with a focus on neurodevelopmental disorders. I would like to learn more about the biological causes and potential therapies. So far, my work has primarily been investigating higher cognitive functions including consciousness. I had a chance to work in clinical settings with people suffering from autism, addiction, and chronic pain. Nonetheless, I am excited to expand my research abilities in various neuroscience approaches including molecular, cellular and network processes.
