Real-Time VR System for Rodents

A full-stack VR system processing 6-DOF motion tracking input at 360 FPS. Rendered perspective-correct 3D scenes at 120 FPS with < 20ms detection to projection latency. I implemented custom shaders for real-time cube mapping and projection transformations.

Large-Scale Correlation Analysis of Neural-Behavioral Relationships

The meat of my PhD. I applied linear and non-linear modeling, correlational analyses, and dimensionality reduction methods to understand how the brain integrates vision and body motion in the mouse visual cortex. I built an automated processing pipeline to handle TBs of data from preprocessing through visualization with Snakemake.

Tech: Python, Snakemake, SciKit-learn, UMAP-learn, SciPy, NumPy, Pandas, Git

Automated Cell Segmentation & Signal Activity Extraction

Computer vision pipeline for 1-photon calcium imaging movies. Achieved accurate cell segmentation and fluorescence signal extraction with minimal user input, including demixing temporal activity from spatially overlapping cells and re-identification of cells across experimental sessions.
