It’s been a rewarding journey studying sleep as a postdoc, and I’m now exploring faculty positions in neuroscience. My latest work uncovers a neural mechanism for homeostatic sleep. Open to opportunities and always happy to chat! 🔗

Our latest preprint is out, focusing on characterizing the response of Lhx6-positive neurons of the zona incerta (ZI) to naturally-occurring and experimentally-induced changes in the need to sleep, also known as sleep pressure.

Sleep pressure is differentially regulated by molecularly distinct subtypes of Lhx6-positive and Lhx6-negative neurons of the zona incerta
Sleep pressure, the accumulating drive towards sleep during wakefulness, is shaped by Lhx6-positive GABAergic neurons in the zona incerta (ZI). Here, we show that these neurons are broadly activated b...

A Subcircuit in the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus Generates Wakefulness
This study identifies a sub-circuit within the circadian pacemaker suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) that promotes arousal. This sub-circuit is labeled by the clock output molecule mWAKE, which suppresse...

I'm thrilled to share that my postdoctoral work is now published in
@science.org
. We uncovered a new circuit mechanism that regulates homeostatic sleep in mice. Huge thanks to all collaborators and supporters!

Sleep need–dependent plasticity of a thalamic circuit promotes homeostatic recovery sleep
Prolonged wakefulness leads to persistent, deep recovery sleep (RS). However, the neuronal circuits that mediate this process remain elusive. From a circuit screen in mice, we identified a group of th...
