I'm interested in cognitive, neuro, and behavioral science.  

Starting from elementary school, I participated in local science fairs and the National Invention Convention. As I explore the possibilities of the STEM world, I find that I'm especially drawn by the workings of the human brain. From the firing of individual neurons to the behaviors of entire groups, the brain is the core of who we are. Despite how intensely it's researched, we know so little about its intricacies. More and more discoveries are made each day, furthering our understandings one small step at a time.

The Discoveries, the Ideas, and the People

The research side of neuroscience and behavioral science is important in discovering and reinforcing knowledge about our brains, and it needs to be implemented in innovative ideas that utilize knowledge to society's benefit. Advocacy brings in a human element necessary to start the search for more nuanced information and spread the right message when that information is found.

Innovation

The SEL-Pet website collects a hybrid of established biomarkers (leaving out personal information) to form a non-invasive early detection system for autism spectrum disorder.
