Doctoral researcher primarily investigating the use of neurofeedback in combination with virtual reality technology to aid chronic pain. Project is still very early stage and under development, there are aims to use motion capture data and biomechanical analysis to investigate any physical improvements besides reduction in pain too.

I am engaged in the study of the intricate relationship between affective disorders and their associated comorbidities, particularly chronic pain. To delve into this complex interplay, I employ a multi-faceted approach. For human subjects, I utilize behavioral tasks and non-invasive imaging methods to unravel the neural and behavioral foundations of these conditions. When working with animal models, I employ in-house developed, customizable polyimide-based flexible electrodes. These specialized tools enable me to gain deeper insights into the neural underpinnings of these disorders.

I’m currently a postdoc at UCLA researching the effects of TMS on smoking cessation and investigating how TMS alters the brain to achieve behavioral changes using resting state fMRI. I plan to apply this knowledge to research migraines and opioid substance use disorders.

I am not currently involved in a research project ,however I work in Primary care and see patients with long term pain on a daily basis. I would like to stay up to date with current research
