• I lead a project where I characterize a pre-clinic mouse model of a neurodegenerative disorder (Adult-onset leukoencephalopathy with axonal spheroids and pigmented glia) utilizing methods such as animal behavior, biochemistry/molecular biology, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (different models of diffusion-weighed imaging), microscopy, etc.
• I have experience with machine learning (neural networks) for detecting movement (DeepLabCut, open-source software for tracking animals in behavioral experiments).
• I have intermediate knowledge of R (programming language) for data analysis and visualization.
