Sabine completed her BSc (Hons) in Neuroscience at the University of Bristol, UK and then earned two MSc degrees in Neuroscience as a student in the Neurasmus (Erasmus Mundus Joint Master Degree in Neuroscience) program. She completed part of her MSc training at the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen (Germany) and l’Université de Bordeaux (France), and conducted her thesis research at the Weizmann Institute of Science (Israel). In September 2019, Sabine joined McGill University as a PhD student in the IPN Rotation Program and is currently performing a rotation in the Bowie lab. Her main interest lies in synaptic plasticity, and in particular, which role individual receptor types play in plasticity.
