What I'm looking for

I seek a collaborative environment where I can contribute to innovative research and further develop my skills in neuroscience.

I am a passionate biomedical scientist with a Master of Science in Biomedical Science from Hood College and a PhD in Neuroscience from Yamaguchi University. My academic journey has been enriched by extensive research experience, particularly in neurophysiology, where I have conducted laboratory experiments focusing on neuroplasticity and electrophysiological properties of neurons.

During my tenure as a Research and Teaching Assistant at Yamaguchi University, I honed my skills in data analysis and experimental design, utilizing platforms like Excel to track and report data meticulously. My research has led to significant findings, including a comparative analysis of GABAergic interneurons, which has contributed to our understanding of neuronal behavior. I am also an active member of professional societies, including the Japan Neuroscience Society, and have co-authored several publications that reflect my commitment to advancing knowledge in the field.
