Ramón y Cajal Fellow establishing human circuit research at Hospital del Mar Research Institute.

I am a patch-clamp electrophysiologist combining structural and functional techniques to understand how cell, synapse, and circuit properties give rise to computations. I previously performed doctoral research with Ingo Greger at the MRC LMB in Cambridge, and postdoctoral research with Peter Jonas at IST Austria, collaborating with Karl Rössler at the Medical University of Vienna.
