I am a Ph.D. graduate from the University of Cambridge (UK) who completed my final year graduate work when the lab moved to EEB at the University of Minnesota. My project aims to dissect the neural mechanisms underlying colour vision in Drosophila at the level of the second visual neuropil, the medulla. In the initial stages of my graduate studies I developed a novel setup for simultaneous 2-photon imaging and colour stimulation, which I am now using to characterise spectral properties of neurons in the medulla.
