I am an optical biology student interested in using optical tools to investigate how the brain facilitates flexible learning. My project focuses on the role of neuromodulators in encoding uncertainties of our environment; something that is crucial to track for us to flexibly change our behaviour when the environment is volatile. With fiber photometry, I image the release of the neuromodulators Acetylcholine and Noradrenaline in key mouse brain areas for learning and decision making (Prefrontal cortex and ventral Hippocampus), to better understand the underlying computations.
