Research interests

I study cortical homologies between human and non-human primates with structural and functional neuroimaging as well as single-nucleus and spatial transcriptomics techniques. My research seeks to improve the common spatial framework used to map data between species, better understand the recent evolution of primate neocortex, and ultimately, learn a little about what makes us human.
