Laura L. Grima
Systems neuroscientist investigating the neural basis of ethologically-inspired learning and decision-making processes
I am a Research Scientist in the Dudman Lab at HHMI Janelia, where I combine behavioural ecology and computational modelling to understand how neural circuits support flexible behaviour in complex, changing environments. In my research career thus far I have focused on the role of dopamine in learning to make effective foraging decisions.
