bio: "Salma received her BS in Biology Bioinformatics from CUNY Hunter College in 2022. During her undergraduate studies, she worked in the lab of Eric Nestler at Icahn School of Medicine Mount Sinai. Salma then took part in the NIH Postbaccalaureate Research Education Program as a research scholar at Baylor College of Medicine in Kelly Bijanki’s lab and in collaboration with Sameer Sheth, where she studied the change in depression symptom severity of inpatient deep brain stimulation treatment. Currently, Salma is interested in exploring the neural mechanisms of perceptual and cognitive flexibility. Her project leverages single-neuron recordings in humans with methods from statistics and computational neuroscience. Outside the lab she enjoys reading, writing creative pieces, and exploring places in her hometown in Queens."
