Postdoc
Steven is a postdoctoral researcher and NIH K00 fellow in the Laboratory for Neural Engineering and Control. His research interests involve understanding the role of the noradrenergic system on neural circuit activity during information processing as well as neuro-immune dynamics within Alzheimer’s disease at the receptor, cellular, circuit, and behavioral level. Prior to joining the NEC lab in 2023, Steven received his PhD in Bioengineering under Dr. Takashi Kozai at the University of Pittsburgh. His doctoral research focused on understanding the brain’s immune response to implantable neural electrode arrays using a combination of in vivo multiphoton microscopy, electrophysiology, and immunohistology.
