I am a PhD candidate in the lab of Professor Karen Duff at University College London, investigating the basis of tauopathies such as Alzheimer’s Disease using bioinformatic approaches.
As an undergraduate student at Boston University, I majored in neuroscience and helped analyze fMRI data from the Human Connectome Project to further refine the DIVA model of speech. Afterward, I pursued Master’s degree at The University of Tokyo, and wrote my thesis on the behavioral phenotyping of a novel mouse model of autism using Intellicage, an automated home cage system.
In my spare time, I enjoy playing electric guitar and exploring new music. I also try to engage in community outreach with the support of Rotary International, and pursued my studies in Japan under a Rotary scholarship.
