Bo Bekkouche – new PhD student

A smiling person is standing in the lab.

Hello!
I am a new PhD student in the Animal physiology group with David O’Carroll as main supervisor and Elisa Rigosi as co-supervisor.

I did my bachelor and master degrees at the Royal Institute of Techonlogy in Stockholm.

My bachelor project focused on modeling neuropathic pain, and my master thesis on simulations of neuronal networks to analyze spiketrain heterogeneity, and subtypes in mouse striatum using clustering of single-cell RNA-seq data. I have also worked as a software developer for about 2 years at Compugroup medical. Most recently I worked as a research assistant at Karolinska institutet in Stockholm, using a detailed medium spiny neuron model to analyze different classifications and see what parameters control network synchronicity.

Here at Lund University I will analyze the neural mechanisms for target tracking in insects, using electrophysiology, anatomical reconstruction, and
computational modeling.
