I am a neuroscience major and French minor in my senior year. I chose neuroscience because I was interested in the blend of social, physical, and life science courses that the major had to offer, and I have loved it ever since! The Merkley lab is an all-encompassing research experience, combining techniques in computing with a knowledge of neuropsychology and clinical applications that became the perfect fit for me as a neuroscience student and a future applicant to medical school. This lab has helped me pursue my dream of becoming a physician, and exploring various specialities like psychiatry, neurology, or neurosurgery. Outside of the lab, I enjoy language learning, spending time with my wife, and volunteering at the local hospital.
