I am a passionate and experienced neuroscientist with a strong background in cell biology and pharmacology. As a current Assistant Project Scientist and a formal UC President's Postdoc Fellow, my research interrogates how substances such as psychedelics shape brain function and behaviors. With 12 years of experiences in neuroscience research, I have expertise in disease modeling, rodent surgery, calcium imaging, 2D/3D stem cell culture, spatial biology, expansion microscopy, and computational analysis, along with scientific communication and leadership of a group of other young scientists. I am currently seeking opportunities that will allow me to make further translational impacts on human brains and their health and disease through collaboration with other academic labs, startup, biotech, and/or pharmaceutical companies. Outside the lab, I enjoy gardening and trying out a new Korean restaurant in the Bay Area.
