Faculty Profiles

My teaching spans across Neuromodulation, History of Neuroscience, Cognitive Neuroscience, and Science Communication. My teaching philosophy is anchored in fostering intellectual curiosity, enhancing critical thinking, and accommodating diverse learning paths. In my classroom, students engage with current research, and are encouraged to critically assess and apply scientific knowledge. I strive to create a learning environment that is both challenging and supportive, preparing students for complex scientific inquiry and practice. My research as a visual neuroscientist is centered on developing noninvasive neuromodulation techniques, particularly through the innovative use of light flicker. My work integrates psychophysics, pupillometry, and electroencephalography (EEG) to explore how visual stimulation can enhance brain function and mental health. Key questions include the mechanisms of action, optimal frequencies for cognitive improvement, and the durability of these enhancements. This research not only advances our understanding of brain health but also holds significant promise for treating a range of cognitive disorders. At the university, I am dedicated to bridging the gap between foundational neuroscience and practical applications to improve lives through accessible technology.
