I completed my BSc in Neuroscience at King’s College London, where I had the opportunity to carry out my final year dissertation project in the Rico lab. The project focused on how early sensory experience shapes cortical circuits. After showing interest in the role of a Research Technician, as my project came to an end, I was offered the role after graduation. Now, I work under the supervision of Maria Jose Conde-Dusman, a Postdoc here at the lab, in researching the impact of early sensory experience on the formation and shaping of the inhibitory circuits in the brain.
