Neuroscientist | UCL | Studying neural dynamics of memory | 🇧🇷
📢🧠 My time as a Research Fellow at UCL is coming to an end, so I’m looking for my next challenge.
I’m based in London, with 10+ years working on memory, sleep and neurotech.
Open to opportunities in research, data, consultancy or teaching. :)

Topography of putative bi-directional interaction between hippocampal sharp-wave ripples and neocortical slow oscillations
Mechanisms of hippocampal-mediated systems consolidation across neocortex remain unknown.
Swanson et al. suggest the hippocampus and retrosplenial cortex are weakly coupled,
excitable systems capable ...

Cool result. Pupillometry in sleeping mice, combined with population recordings in hippocampus, reveal that NREM is composed of substates. Contracted pupils correlate to the preferential replay of recent (opposed to remote) experiences.

Sleep microstructure organizes memory replay - Nature
The temporal microstructure of the brain can multiplex distinct cognitive processes during sleep to support continuous learning.
