Profile Summary

I am a Ph.D. trained neuroscientist with +15 years experience in research. I authored publications and performed peer review for leading scientific journals. I participated in the writing of NIH and private agencies grant proposals. I can provide feedback in a wide variety of topics spanning from molecular neuroscience to diseases of the nervous system. During my Ph.D. and postdoc, I acquired experience in a variety of techniques: in vivo electroporation, surgeries, neuronal tracing and reconstruction, cell culture, tissue processing, immunohistochemistry, molecular cloning, and rigorous cell quantification methods.
