Hi, I’m Richard, a neuroscientist with a strong interest in software development. I wish to better understand how we perceive our environment and how we make decisions on a fundamental level. I’m currently part of the Cognitive Neurophysiology group headed by Kathrin Ohla, with a focus on taste processing.
I will be joining the Parietal team at Inria Saclay – Île-de-France in March 2020 to work on MNE-Python full-time.
