My interview article was published in VERDURE, which is an annual magazine by students in the Department of Biological Science, Sri Venkateswara College, University of Delhi (India). I talked with Aparna Pillai, an editor-in-chief, and our talk was published as an article, “Sneak-peek into a life of neuroscientist”.

21 March 2021

Our research plan was adopted by a trans-border program consisting of interdisciplinary, international, and interpersonal areas; SPIRITS: Supporting Program for Interaction-based Initiative Team Studies).

I will promote international collaborative research with Dr. Adam Williamson (France), Dr. Balazs Hangya (Hungary), and Dr. Lyle Muller (Canada) to reveal a brain mechanism of neuronal modulation using a new device.

Research

I am interested in the brain mechanisms and regulations of emotion and mood.

Current researches focus on the primate emotional circuits for producing appropriate behaviors.
