Javier How is a postdoctoral fellow in the labs of Misha Ahrens, Florian Engert, and Joshua Vogelstein at Janelia Research Campus, Harvard University, and Johns Hopkins University, respectively. He is interested in how animals navigate and learn across their lives. He previously earned his Ph.D. in Neurosciences at UC San Diego in the labs of Saket Navlakha and Shrek Chalasani – his focus was on how the network properties of the brain change as an animal processes different odorants.
