About
Data scientist and AI engineer at Afliant. Previously a neuroscience researcher — I did my PhD in Munich under Ruben Portugues, describing for the first time a circuit for heading direction integration in the larval zebrafish brain (thesis), and then a postdoc at the Iurilli lab at IIT, investigating the neural bases of intelligent behavior in the rodent brain.
I build things with Python, think about brains, and occasionally write about it.
