Hi, I am the Founder of The Neuroexplorists. I spend my PhD days developing a tool combining optogenetics and mathematical modelling to manipulate neuronal networks in vitro. Outside of work, you’ll mostly find me enjoying coffee or hanging out with cats!

Hi, I am a PhD student in Amsterdam and I have a passion for women’s health. Next to my work I enjoy reading, Netflix, spending time with friends and I recently discovered cycling (hi quarter-life crisis 🙋🏼‍♀️).

Have you ever wondered who is the guy that loves mathematics, neuroscience and engineering principles to pursue a PhD across these disciplines? Guess what, I’m your crazy guy! I’m a third-year PhD student at the University of Padova, working on the emergence of complex dynamics in single neurons across the CNS!

Hi, my PhD aims to investigate the neurocognitive mechanisms of stress and social learning in individuals with anhedonia using a computational, multimodal approach. Outside of my studies, I enjoy going on coastal walks!

Could psychedelics be the key to treating depression, anxiety and more? That’s the question driving my research as a second-year PhD student at the University of Nottingham, where I’m investigating the effects of psychedelics on cognitive flexibility in vivo. I'm interested in uncovering the neural mechanisms behind mental health disorders and dedicated to making science more accessible for everyone 😊
