About

I have an undergraduate and masters experience with physics but my PhD work is mainly related to neurobiology. I have been into the field of scientific research since 2012. In the initial years from 2012 to 2016, I had experience with materials science and nanotechnology before I moved on to neuroscience. Since 2016 till present day, I have been an insect neuroethologist with experience in behavioral experiments with analysis, intracellular electrophysiology, extracellular EMG recordings, and neuroanatomical approaches in hawkmoths and butterflies.

My research interests broadly lie in understanding how neural circuits process sensory information and transform it into behavioral output. I have lab-based experience combining behavior with neural recordings, as well as anatomical and morphological techniques including scanning electron microscopy, micro-CT, and laser confocal microscopy to address structure–function questions in the insect brain and unravel the neural principles underlying the insect behavior.
