University of Rochester Medical Center

I’m a trainee in the Medical Scientist Training Program at University of Rochester’s School of Medicine and Dentistry. Currently, I’m a 3rd year graduate student getting my PhD in Neuroscience under the guidance of two phenomenal mentors, Dr. Julie Fudge and Dr. Lizabeth Romanski. My thesis research centers on understanding the contributions of amygdala-prefrontal projections in stimulus processing, with a long term goal of developing translatable models of emotional processing for clincial applications in mood disorders.
