Jesus Penaloza
Graduate Student
Behaviors serve as a window to understand how the brain integrates cognitive, motor, and sensory information to enable decision making. My main goal is to study the dynamics of this complex system to develop models that could inform neuro-behavioral targets for neurodevelopmental disorders.
Caitlin Baumer
Graduate Student
Research Interest: salt taste/intake regulation and influence on blood pressure, gustatory and interoceptive regulation of blood pressure, the relationship between blood pressure/volume and fluid intake regulation.
Sophia Eikenberry
Graduate Student
Research interests: mechanisms in the brain and body designed to protect us & keep us healthy can go wrong under chronic stress, leading to the development of psychophysiological pathology.
