About Me

I am a neuroscience student at George Mason University with a concentration in computational neuroscience. I am interested in neuroinformatics, morphology data, scientific data curation, and neuron modeling.

My current work supports NeuroMorpho.org through literature mining and morphology metadata curation. My senior project revolves around the NEURON Simulator, Allen Institute Cell Types, and NeuroMorpho.org databases.
