Research Interests:
I am interested in how the nervous system is organized - what key cells or molecules inform that organization and how organization may dictate or influence function. I also have a soft spot for glia which we still do not fully understand in the field. My work in the lab straddles these two interests. Using the embryonic mouse cochlea as a model, I examine the role of glia in guiding the outgrowth of spiral ganglion neuron processes towards cochlea hair cells during development. Fun Facts:
What is your favorite ice cream flavor? Velvet Ice Cream's Raspberry Fudge Cordial. If anyone finds where I can buy this in Boston, they win. What do they win you ask? Don't ask. What superpower do you wish you had? I wish I could see the future. I feel like I won't be as stressed out about what is going to happen (how my life will turn out? If I will ever become a PI?) if I knew the outcome. I would just enjoy watching the future unravel. Also, I can know on time which experiments to pursue and which to put aside if I know what the result will be. |
