I am a computational neuroscientist interested in the computations performed by neuronal circuits in the early visual system of primates and mice. As a graduate student I am working with Matthias Bethge and Andreas Tolias.

To study how neurons interact to process information, we record the activity of many neurons at the same time and develop statistical models of their activity. I am particularly interested in how neural circuits in the retina and primary visual cortex responds to natural scences and movies.

I am also interested in philosophy of neuroscience and the ethical questions arising from our work.
