His research involved computational modeling of synaptic plasticity rules and probing the balanced dynamics of excitatory and inhibitory properties of neocortical interneurons.
After completing his first post-doctoral fellowship in 2010, he received a Marie Curie Reintegration grant for a postdoctoral stay in the laboratory of Wulfram Gerstner at the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL).
Together with his colleagues he published highly influential[citation needed] research on the role of inhibitory mechanisms of neuroplasticity in shaping balanced excitation and inhibition across cortical circuits.
In this capacity, he expanded on previous lines of research, advancing the use of spiking neural network models, linear algebra, and matrix mathematics to understand how the brain performs efficient computations and stores memories in complex firing activity patterns.
[1][2] He also co-founded World Wide Neuro, a platform that promotes open access to neuroscience research seminars and other virtual education resources.
