Deviating from my usual conference poster content for #SfN2022. Come check out my Theme J poster today from 1-2 pm about the UCI Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory's Ambassador Program, a student-led neuroscience outreach effort 5+ years in the making! @mgchappelfarley
And if you're interested in #Alzheimer's, #aging, #DownSyndrome #sleep, and/or #developmental #neuroscience, be sure to check out posters presented by my Yassa lab colleagues in the coming days!
Now that I'm getting the hang of this I suppose it's time for an introduction and time to trade tweeting 🐥 for tooting 🐘 !
Hello there 👋 I'm Helena, freshly minted PhD in psychology from Cambridge Uni and now postdoc at the German Center for Neurodegenerative Diseases (DZNE).
Give me a follow if you're interested in research on cognitive neuroscience of ageing and memory, preclinical Alzheimer's disease and neuroimaging or the occasional nerdy comment 🤓 👩🔬
#Introduction
Hello! I'm a PhD candidate in Neurobiology and Behavior (#Neuroscience) at the University of California Irvine. I'm using #rsfMRI and #PET imaging to study the progression of #Alzheimer's disease pathology and clinical impairment in people with #DownSyndrome. I'm planning to defend my dissertation in summer 2023, and I've been looking for jobs related to #ScienceCommunication and/or #SciencePolicy to pursue after graduation.
I love running, hot yoga, hiking, and spending time with my cats 🙂
