What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment that fosters innovation in neuroscience research.

I am currently pursuing my M.S. in Bio and Brain Engineering at KAIST, where I focus on understanding the neural mechanisms underlying Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). My research involves utilizing functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to study communication patterns in both ASD and wild-type mice. I have presented my findings at the Korean Society of Medical and Biological Engineering Conference, showcasing my commitment to advancing knowledge in neurodevelopmental disorders.

Prior to my graduate studies, I gained valuable experience as a paralegal, where I prepared patent applications related to neuroscience and maintained communication with clients and the Israeli Patent Division. This role honed my analytical skills and provided me with a unique perspective on the intersection of law and science. I am passionate about applying my research skills to real-world challenges and contributing to advancements in brain technologies.
