About me
I am a Helen Hay Whitney postdoctoral fellow in the lab of Dr. Nicholas Bellono in the Department of Molecular and Cellular Biology at Harvard University. My research utilizes molecular, genetic, physiological, and behavioral approaches to understand how the sensory systems of aquatic and semi-aquatic animals adapt to their ecological niche. I completed my PhD in the lab of Dr. Joseph Sisneros at the University of Washington and my master's at the University of Minnesota - Duluth in the lab of Dr. Allen Mensinger. My graduate research utilized behavioral and physiological approaches to interrogate the neural mechanisms of sound production and localization in vocal fishes. |
