I am a PhD student working in the Brain Networks research group and the Neurology Department of the Max-Planck Institute for Human Brain and Cognitive Sciences in Leipzig, Germany. In my PhD project I am applying biophysical modelling of neural microcircuits representing the somatosensory cortex to data from EEG measurments. My goal is to disentangle the neural correlates and dynamics of consciously perceiving somatosensory stimuli.
