I am a postdoctoral fellow in Seattle using computational methods to examine how neural population activity changes over the course of learning. My research goal is to uncover mechanisms of learning and memory to discover targets for therapeutics for neuropsychiatric disorders, by using computational models as a theoretical framework and lens.
