I am a graduate student in NCBS, Bangalore (India), studying neuro-ethology using the vinegar fly, Drosophila melanogaster, as a model system. I look at how serotonin modulates olfactory driven behaviors in these animals. My work aims to link development of neural circuits to the behavior in mature animals.

I keep a track on the scientific literature on neuroscience of different aspects of social psychology especially decision making. I am also looking for post doctoral opportunities in field of fMRI imaging based studies of human or non human primate behavior. Given the transition from my current field of work, I am open to work as an intern for a short term as well.
