Antonia Drinnenberg

Antonia received a Bachelor's degree in Biology from ETH Zurich and a Master's degree in Computational and System Neuroscience from University of Zurich, Switzerland. In 2017 she completed her PhD in the group of Botond Roska at the FMI Basel, Switzerland. During her graduate work she studied the function of interneuron types in the retina combining genetic, viral, physiological, and computational approaches. After a short postdoc at the FMI, she joined the Deisseroth lab in 2018. In the D-lab she will continue pursuing her passion for dissecting neuronal circuits using targeted perturbations and plans to study brain-wide activity patterns during sensory-guided behaviour.
