Research interests: Investigating tau protein effects on neural circuit activity during sleep in models of Alzheimer's disease, using Neuropixels electrophysiological recordings.

Research Fellow - Google Scholar

Research interests: Studying cognition in Alzheimer's disease, using behavioural tests in conjunction with circuit-level investigations.

Research Fellow

Research interests: Establishing how amyloid-beta and tau interact to produce the neurological deficits associated with Alzheimer's disease. My aim is to leverage these insights to identify new therapeutic targets. 

Research Fellow

Research interests: Applying virtual reality-based two-photon imaging to study spatial navigation in Alzheimer's disease
