Graduate Student, Cognition & Neural Systems
Science Enhanced Mindful Awareness (SEMA) Lab
Faculty Advisor: John Allen

My work in the SEMA Lab investigates how transcranial focused ultrasound can be used to modify experiential factors like the sense of self and mindfulness, and how this correlates with brain activity as measured by fMRI and EEG.

Research Interests:

  • Science of consciousness, and his
  • Research Approach - to work at the intersection of psychophysiology and experience.
