Research Experience
  • Position: Research Associate at Lichtman Lab, Harvard University; Research areas include the development of nervous systems in vertebrates and invertebrates, specifically the wiring diagram between lower motor neurons and muscle fibers (muscle connectomes), the network of learning and memory in the octopus vulgaris vertical lobe, and the maturation of connectomes in C. elegans.
Background
  • Research interests: questions in neuroscience that can be answered only by having precise wiring diagrams. Focusing on developing new ways (algorithms) to extract and study neuron wiring diagrams from volume electron microscopy.
