I am a Postdoctoral Fellow in Martha Bagnall’s lab at WashU. We use zebrafish to ask questions about the development of the nervous system.

I am interested in the development of the motor system, espacially the spinal cord, as well as in aging and neurodegeneration. I also enjoy working with computers, writing programs that assist in everyday science-making, and tinkering with electronics, such as Arduino or various BCI systems, which can help in investigating the motor system. To this end, I also employ computer simulations. Lastly, I am curious how microgravity and space environment in general influence the motor system function, development and aging.
