(She/Her/Hers)
Postdoctoral Fellow / Lab of Christopher Harvey, Department of Neurobiology

I am a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Harvey lab where I combine large-scale two-photon calcium imaging with novel behavioral paradigms to understand how information arises and is maintained across the cortex during learning. I completed my PhD in Joseph Paton’s lab at the Champalimaud Centre for the Unknown in Lisbon, Portugal, where I studied the contributions of striatal and midbrain dopamine neurons to animals’ representations of time. Outside the lab, you might find me teaching, hiking and exploring new places on foot and by bike, cooking or eating delicious food and playing games or music with friends.
