motivation neural dynamics

I am a PhD student in the Stanford University Neurosciences Ph.D. Program; I am co-advised by Liqun Luo and Karl Deisseroth, with support from the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship. Previously, I worked with Gilad Barnea, where I developed a technique for transsynaptic labeling and manipulation of neural circuits. I graduated from Brown University in 2013 with a degree in Applied Mathematics-Biology, where I focused on synthetic biology, engineering, and machine learning. I am currently interested in goal-directed behavior and neural circuit dynamics.
