Sepiedeh Keshavarzi is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physiology, Development and Neuroscience at the University of Cambridge. Her research focuses on understanding the neural underpinnings of self-motion and spatial orientation, employing advanced techniques in cellular and systems neuroscience. Using mouse models, she investigates how sensory information is integrated for guiding behavior, particularly how this ability changes with age. Her work includes in-vivo electrophysiology and calcium imaging to record neuronal activity in various behavioral contexts, aiming to elucidate the functional organization of neural circuits involved in spatial cognition. In addition to her research, she teaches courses related to neural circuits and behavior, contributing to the academic development of students in the field of neuroscience.
