I am a senior postdoctoral research fellow at the Prof. Roger Lemon lab at the UCL Institute of Neurology, Queen Square, London. My main research interest is in understanding of primate brain using electrophysiological data.

Before joining Prof. Lemon lab a was a Swartz postdoctoral fellow at Sloan Swartz Center of Theoretical Neuroscience working with Prof. Christof Koch, Caltech. My research was focused on analysis of single cell and local field potentials data recorded from human brain. The experiments were dome in collaboration with Dr. Itzhak Fried, UCLA.
