I am a Postdoctoral research scientist at Institut des Neurosciences Paris-Saclay, CNRS working with Dr. Nicolas Giret and in collaboration with the labs of Dr. Arthur Leblois, IMN Bordeaux and Prof. Richard Hahnloser, INI Uni. Zurich. I completed my MS-PhD in computational & cellular neurophysiology as a Bristol Meyers Squibb Fellow at Indian Institute of Science (2010-2017) under the mentorship of Prof. Rishikesh Narayanan. I then transitioned to systems neuroscience, investigating the neural mechanisms of vocal-motor learning as a Postdoctoral Associate at Cornell University (2018-2022) in the lab of Prof. Jesse Goldberg. 

I continue to leverage my training in neurophysiology, in-vivo neural recordings and quantitative analysis to investigate the role of basal ganglia-cortical circuits in vocal-motor learning, using songbirds as the model system, at my current position. My long-term goal is to pursue research into the neural mechanisms of adaptive vocalization, vocal learning and social vocal cognition. I am not doing science, I am an avid reader of fiction and an amateur write
