My Story
I trained as a psychiatrist and currently doing my PhD at Cardiff University. Working with patients in clinical settings made me believe that there is a lot yet to be explored. I am passionate about studying the neurobiological underpinnings of mental disorders. I will be working on experiments to try and understand sleep and how spontaneous or targeted memory replay during sleep shapes our brain and emotional experiences.
