Work History

Honour's Project

Motor Neuroscience Laboratory Yale & McGill
09.2023 - Current
  • Currently working with Dr. David J Ostry and Dr. Mohammad Darainy
  • We are interested in understanding how the brain changes with experience. Our specific focus is on the sensory and motor areas of the brain, for which we use both speech production and upper limb movement as experimental models. Our most recent work focuses on the role of sensory plasticity in human motor learning.
  • My project is about a theory demonstrated that recognition memory for previous movements was much better than recall memory. This is analogous to the superiority of recognition memory over recall in tests of verbal memory. My experiment builds on that study to test whether the sensory modality used in the recognition memory tests affects the memory estimates.

Periodic table

  • Became a chemistry application translator as my passion was recognized by Никита Черных, the founder of Periodic Table. The translation of complex chemical terminologies has allowed me to explore a wide range of high-level materials and their properties which are not covered in the textbook. This translation experience has widened my chemistry horizon and developed my own thoughts on chemistry.
