Filip Tomaska

Biography

Filip earned his MSc in Neurobiology at Charles University in Prague in 2018, by studying neurophysiology of complex sound processing in murine auditory cortex using two-photon imaging.

Based on his user experience with optophysiology, he became interested in tool development and spent two years at the Janelia research campus as a research technician working for Kaspar Podgorski and Eric Schreiter.

Research

By joining Spencer Smith’s lab at UCSB as a graduate student in 2021, Filip is hoping to contribute to the development of accessible yet cutting edge optophysiological tools enabling further advancements in the global effort towards neuronal code deciphering.
