PI Background: I am a neuroscientist with a physics background, working in the field of auditory neuroethology. I transitioned into this area as a postdoc, working with systems neuroscientists at the University of California, San Francisco's Sloan-Swartz Center for Theoretical Neurobiology. After initially studying the visual system, I began a program to explore how neurons in the auditory system encode behaviorally relevant sounds, using a mouse model of acoustic communication.

Scientific interests: My main interest is the study of cortical mechanisms at the levels of single cell and LFP involved in the encoding of natural stimuli, in particular to communication sounds in A1. Other interests are the neural basis of cognitive processes like attention, memory and decision making.

Scientific interests: Sensory systems and neural coding: In particular, understanding how behavioral experiences modify the significance of stimulus input at the level of sensory cortices. In addition, I have interests in analytical mathematical or computational approaches to studying neural coding.
