I build the hardware to collect neural data and the software to model it. My work sits at the intersection of retinal physiology, biophysical modeling, and computational neuroscience: from patented electrophysiology devices to ODE networks of retinal circuit dynamics. Currently building a biophysically grounded digital twin of the retinal circuit, constrained by population recordings, multi-omics, and spatial transcriptomics.
