Department of Genetics &

Molecular Neurobiology

I am a doctoral candiate since January 2020. I studied Biology in Madrid (Spain) and at the moment I finished my Master in Integrative Neuroscience at the Otto von Guericke University (Magdeburg) in Dec. 2019. For my project, I study the amygdalar regulation of memory engrams in the hippocampus. For that aim, I take advantage of several techniques such us engram labelling methods, chemogenetics, learning behavioral paradigms and in vitro electrophysiology..

Education
