The good news is that #SelfCare day seems to have helped. Managed to be productive in the morning and napped like a champ after lunch. Feeling a bit better this evening. Isolating and recentering is always the way.

If I find out that this purely #neurochemical, and a #med and actual support from #docs helps address or even moderate it, then I would be a happy camper.

New #introduction for neuromatch.social 🙂​

My group investigates and defines cell types and neural circuits of the #thalamus, #hippocampus, and #cortex that contribute to spatial #memory processes.
These processes break down in #Alzheimer's disease. To understand the causes/triggers of #neurodegeneration, we study early-stage #Tau #pathology in the human #brain and in mouse models.

I previously defined various types of retinal ganglion cells using ex vivo #patchclamp recordings during my PhD in #Basel, before moving to #Oxford to work on #GABAergic #neurons of the #hippocampus, followed by the #medialseptum. My favourite technique is in vivo #extracellular recordings and #juxtacellular labelling as it enables identification of single #cells based on their firing patterns, #axon terminal distribution, and #neurochemical profile.

As an #experimentalist, my expertise is primarily in vivo #neurophysiology and #neuroanatomy. I am also interested in #consciousness, the origins of #memory, and regulation of #neuronal activity and #behaviour by #neuropeptides.
