I am a neuroscience PhD candidate studying in the Epp Lab in the Hotchkiss Brain Institute at the University of Calgary.

• My primary academic interest is studying the brain-wide dynamics supporting learning and memory
  • My prefered techniques for these investigations include (but are not limited to - I'm always looking out for new techniques!):
    • Batteries of sophisticated behavioural analyses
    • Brain-wide mapping of immediate early gene expression and the graph theoretical analysis of these functional connectivity networks
    • In vivo monitoring of cell type specific activity in specific target regions, at both a single cell level and at the level of regional population activity
    • Advanced histology and microscopy techniques, including various tissue clearing approaches, and sophisticated analysis of these images
    • 3D CAD modelling and the prototyping of scientific hardware

• Image Registration to Custom Atlases as per https://doi.org/10.1523/ENEURO.0325-21.2022
• Fibre Photometry Analyses as per https://doi.org/10.1101/2022.08.19.504565

• GitHub Repositories with the code used for data analysis (when applicable).
• Further information on these publications can be found at the linked profiles (click icons):

• Always open to collaboration on the following kinds of problems

  • Work automating and quantifying histology

    • Brain-wide regional label expression
    • Colocalization of fluorescent labels in 3D volumetric imaging sets

  • The analysis of time-course datasets

    • multi/single region fibre photometry
    • multi/single region fibre photometry
    • miniscope recordings
    • mesoscale imaging data
    • fMRI (human and rodent)
    • PET (human and rodent)

  • Transcriptomic analyses

• I am happy to answer any questions concerning the analyses included on my GitHub profile.
