Research Summary

My research background can all be lumped under "systems neuroscience." I have always been interested in circuits at the neuron level and the brain region level. My research interests and publications involved phenomenon such as brain rhythms, aphasia (inability to move), and compulsive behaviors - all which circle this concept of the brain using "loops" in healthy and disease states (at least in my mind!). Even my favorite brain regions to study, the basal ganglia, are thought to be a series of loops or spirals between multiple brain areas that all circle back to each other.
