Welcome to my page

I am currently a postdoctoral fellow at the Freiburg Bernstein Center for Computational Neuroscience. My research focuses on understanding the neural basis of cognitive flexibility in the prefrontal cortex. I received my Ph.D. from the University of Tuebingen, where I worked at the Retinal Prosthetics Lab. My doctoral research centered on neural coding in the retina during electrical stimulation. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Engineering and a Master's degree in Biomedical Engineering

During my doctoral studies, I recorded electrophysiological data from mouse retinal ganglion cells using multi-electrode arrays. The aim of my Ph.D. project was to discover novel methods to preferentially target different neuronal pathways in the retina. If you like to know more about my work please check this article out.

I am interested in both experimental and computational neuroscience, particularly in developing tools to image and manipulate neural circuits.I am seeking opportunities in the field of neural organoids and drug discovery. I am excited about the potential to contribute to cutting-edge research in these areas. In my spare time, I enjoy cycling, swimming, and hiking in nature!
