Mechanisms Underlying Duration-Tuned Neurons

I am a fifth year PhD student studying the mechanisms of duration-tuned neurons in the bat auditory midbrain.  I am interested in how the brain processes and encodes temporal information from sensory systems. I use a combination of theoretical neuroscience and electrophysiology to conduct my research. My undergraduate degree was a BMath in Combinatorics and Optimization in the Faculty of Mathematics at the University of Waterloo. I love playing jazz piano, going for bike rides, and reading good sci-fi novels. [E-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Response Properties of Duration-Tuned Neurons

I am a fifth year graduate student in the bat lab. I graduated from Mac with a BSc in Psychology and a minor in Computer Science. My honours thesis with Laurel Trainor focused on neural computational models of auditory processing. My research interests now lie in electrophysiology, with an emphasis on understanding neural mechanisms underlying auditory processing and perception. For my research I am investigating the central auditory system of the big brown bat. [E-mail This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it ]
