Background |
I am a research scientist in the Unité de Neurosciences Intégratives et Computationnelles (UNIC) at the Gif sur Yvette campus of the CNRS, near Paris, France. I am working on the FACETS project, developing biologically-detailed models of primary visual cortex. Prior to this, I did my PhD in computational neuroscience with Dr Jianfeng Feng at The Babraham Institute (Cambridge), then a postdoc in the laboratory of Prof. Gordon Shepherd at Yale University School of Medicine, researching the encoding and processing of olfactory information in the olfactory epithelium and olfactory bulb, and working on the ModelDB database of neuronal models, then a postdoc at UNIC, working on the SenseMaker project. |
