I am a postdoc in the laboratory of Prof. Gordon Shepherd at Yale University School of Medicine. I did my PhD in computational neuroscience with Dr Jianfeng Feng at The Babraham Institute. For more information, see my CV.

Research
Interests

My main interest is in the encoding and processing of olfactory information in the olfactory epithelium and olfactory bulb. In particular, I am interested in how the computational properties of single cells affect the network-level behaviour. I am currently working on detailed models of single cells in the mammalian olfactory bulb, and on models of the olfactory bulb network as a whole.
