I am a postdoctoral associate at the Univsersity of Pittsburgh Department of Mathematics and the Center for the Neural Basis of Cognition.

I work with Brent Doiron, Jonathan Rubin and Robert Turner.


Research interests:

- The role of cellular and circuit mechanisms in shaping the dynamical and statistical structure of neural activity.
- Pathophysiology of Parkinson's disease and therapeutic mechanisms of deep brain stimulation.
- The role of basal ganglia circuits in motor learning and motor function.
- Nonlinear signal processing and linear response techniques.

Teaching:

I am not teaching this semester.

Past courses:
Math 0230 - Analytic Geometry and Calculus II.
Math 0290 - Ordinary differential equations (with applications to velociraptors).

My CV

My publications

I am a guest editor for an upcoming issue of Frontiers in Computational Neuroscience titled Correlated neuronal activity and its relationship to coding, dynamics and network architecture. If you have an interesting project related to neuronal correlations, please consider submitting a manuscript.
