How action performance influences perception and memory
Published:
I presented a project exploring the impact of action on event perception and memory. The project delved into the nuances of how action might influence the way we recall events, while also examining the possibility that it may not alter the way we segment these events.

TA for Computational Neuroscience
Online Master-level Course, Neuromatch Academy, 2021
As the teaching assistant for Computational Neuroscience, I guided 12 master-level students in utilizing Python and Google Colab for 20 diverse projects, encompassing topics from causal inference to machine learning algorithms. Provided expert Python coding assistance, created supplementary tutorials for complex concepts, and elucidated algorithmic logic. I also played a pivotal role as a mentor in brain-storm, literature review,model selection, and debugging assistance for three diverse projects. These projects, which encompassed domains such as behavioral analysis and single-neuron spiking patterns. Guided these projects from their initial conceptualization through to the analytical phase.
TA for The Psychology of Learning
Undergraduate course, Washington University in Saint Louis, 2023
As the Assistant to the Instructor for the course ‘The Psychology of Learning,’ I facilitated two comprehensive review sessions. These sessions involved the creation of detailed presentation slides and the delivery of lectures focused on key topics covered in the course. I also host weekly office hours and graded writing assignments as well as exams.
