Biosketch My interests heavily correlate with my major, Neuroscience & Behavioral Biology. My previous research focused on stress reduction and emotional studies, looking at the connection between the brain, stress/ mental wellness (depression and/or anxiety disorders) and exposure to nature, and at University I have worked on investigating the non-genomic effects of androgens on behavioral responses to sex pheromones in zebrafish. These 2 previous opportunities have created a special perspective within the field, and an interest in both non-invasive modalities and the neurobiological side of neuroscience.
