I completed my BSc and MSc in Neuroinformatics, an interdisciplinary program at the Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw.

I did my PhD at the Laboratory of Brain Imaging (LOBI), Nencki Institute. The PhD was part of the translational project Neural correlates of emotional contagion in humans. I used primarily fMRI to study observational fear conditioning. During the time I became particularly interested in the data management side of neuroscience, as LOBI served as a core MRI facility.

My current work is in the area of research data management and research software development. It revolves around the data management software DataLad (website, GitHub org). My responsibilities include bug fixing, user support, technical writing, and teaching. I am part of the INF project of the CRC 1451 (Collaborative Research Centre 1451: Key Mechanisms of Motor Control in Health and Disease).
