Scientific interests

My main scientific interest concerns human brain fluid dynamics and their association with sleep and the clearance of waste products, also known as the glymphatic system. As a scientist, I enjoy working translationally and cross-disciplinarily.

During my undergraduate and doctoral training, I worked with accelerated neuroimaging methods, genetic analyses, and sleep measurements to investigate brain fluid dynamics in both healthy individuals and patients with increased intracranial pressure.

Currently, as a postdoctoral researcher at the Neurobiology Research Unit (NRU), I am conducting subcontract work for the Leducq Network on Brain Clearance in collaboration with Professor Jeffrey Iliff’s lab at the University of Washington, Seattle, USA (https://www.ilifflab.com).
