About Eric

Hi! I am Eric Melonakos (pronounced “mel-oh-NAH-kos”), a neuroscientist interested in anesthesia- and sleep-induced unconsciousness. My research focuses on how individual neurons are affected by anesthesia and sleep to create synchonous neural activity.

I am currently a postdoctoral research fellow at Massachusetts General Hospital and Harvard Medical School and an NIGMS K99/R00 awardee.
