I am a PhD student in the MMNI group and joined the lab in April 2025. I am interested in the neurobiological underpinning of Parkinson’s disease and their involvement in motivation. I work with neuroimaging methods ranging from functional MRI to QSM data. I program behavioural tasks to test the relationship between motoric effort and motivation during the early phase of Parkinson’s disease.
