I had my undergraduate education in Physics at Sofia University "St. Kliment Ohridsky" in Bulgaria. After that I continued with my graduate education at the University of Chicago, where I received my M.Sc. in Physics and Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics.  I am currently an assistant professor in Computational Neuroscience at the Center for Computational Biology and Department of Cell Biology and Neuroscience, Montana State University. I am working on problems of biological sensory processing of natural stimuli and details of neural coding schemes used in biological nervous systems (the cricket in particular). Some of the papers I've written can be found here.
