About
Hi, I'm Brock. I'm a neuroscientist.
Over the past decade, I've used biochemistry, genetics, 3-D organoids, multimodal neuroimaging, and LLMs to research the brains of ants, zebrafish, mice, and humans. Nowadays, I'm a Postdoctoral Scholar at UC Irvine where I use multimodal neuroimaging to study the effects of ibogaine and build research tools for labs around the world.
Brock Consulting LLC is the umbrella business I built around that work, combining scientific expertise, research strategy, and technical infrastructure for students, labs, investigators, and early-stage companies. It has three branches: scientific advisory, research analytics, and technology development through ZOID Technologies, the home of Navigator.
I love solving challenging problems, and I'm always open to helping forward-thinking people and organizations.
