About
I'm a PhD Student at Oizumi Lab, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, The University of Tokyo, Japan. I am also affiliated with the Co-Embodiment Self Lab (CELab) at the University of Lisbon, Portugal, where I was a visiting fellow in fall 2024.
My work sits at the intersection of computational neuroscience, philosophy of mind, and psychiatry. Holding both a medical degree (MD) and training in deep learning and neuroimaging, I study how the brain gives rise to subjective experience, selfhood, and its disruption. I have a track record of proactively initiating interdisciplinary collaborations across neuroscience, computer science, philosophy, and clinical research.
