As a scientist at Biogen, I’ve leveraged my background in behavioral neuroscience and neural activity manipulation and recording to design and execute experiments in multiple neurological disease areas, and to integrate across multi-functional teams in order to develop and test novel therapeutics. I have expertise in running large-scale rodent behavioral studies, including using optogenetics, chemogenetics, photometry, and mini-endoscope recordings to observe and manipulate neural activity during freely-moving behavior. The imaging studies have entailed development and implementation of pre-processing and statistical analytical methods for large-scale imaging datasets in MATLAB. I also have managed inter-group collaborations, and supported the career development of those on my teams.

Listed skills include Fluorescence Microscopy, Neuroscience, Immunohistochemistry, Confocal Microscopy, and 12 others.
