Research Students

Lilia Howland

Junior | Biology Major

Lilia is an INBRE-funded undergraduate research, focusing on understanding the role of tau in the avian brain. She plans to use these research skills as she looks forward to PA school, possibly spending time as a post-bac researcher before that.

Joelle Madour

Junior | Biology Major, Pre-med Track

Now in her second semester of research, Joelle is exploring the structural effects of neural injury in woodpeckers and songbirds using brain imaging. Joelle is interested in direct patient care, likely in a hospital setting, after she graduates.

Isabella D’Arpino

Freshman Biology Undergraduate Researcher

Serena Daaboul

Junior | Neuroscience Major, Philosophy Minor

Serena is interested in the intersection of empirical research and the philosophy of mind. Now in her second semester, she investigates neurotrauma resilience by analyzing brain structures and composition of woodpeckers and songbirds.
