FENS 2022
Lab Girardeau
Paris, France
I received 1,000 EUR financial support for a research stay in France for 2-3 weeks preceding the FENS conference 2022.
​
I stayed in Dr. Gabrielle Girardeau's lab for 3 weeks to learn in vivo ephys in rats. I also built a Bayesian model for decoding the locations of rats on a linear track using ephys data.
