Regarding academia, I’m something like an interdisciplinarity-obsessed statistics nerd with special interests in computational neuroscience, imaging techniques, psychopharmacology and the philosophy of neuroscience.In non-lab life, I’m an enthusiastic rock climber, yoga practitioner, and can likely be found exploring the outdoors in awe of any sort of mountain or rock.My current Neurasmus journey takes me from coursework in rainy-grey Amsterdam to a technical microscopy internship in Bordeaux to soon the cold winters of French Canada.The close contact with the board of education, the informal, but highly professional atmosphere of interaction between students and professors, and the possibility to experience different universities with unique approaches to neuroscientific research make the Neurasmus program feel like a perfect preparation for an academic career.
