I worked at the Penn State Center for Neural Engineering. I wasa research assistant and graduate student working with Dr. Bruce Gluckman. Dr. Gluckman’s research group’s efforts include sleep and seizure research, seizure detection and prediction, neurophysiology instrumentation development, and neural modeling.

My role as a researcher in the lab had been to develop novel neurophysiology tools to enable simultaneous observations of multiple brain structures involved in sleep-wake regulatory dynamics. Additionally, I have helped design scientific questions and experiments aimed at understanding sleep-seizure coupling. I have also designed a number of other CAD models and instrumentation tools that are useful to wider neuroscience research applications.
