Recruiting Northwestern undergrads
We are recruiting Northwestern undergraduate students for volunteer research assistant positions. Prospective students should email Dr. Johnson with a brief introduction and up-to-date resume.
Keyanna awarded summer research fellowship!
Congratulations to undergraduate honors student Keyanna Adams, who was awarded summer research funding!
Yessenia awarded NSF fellowship!
Congratulations to our PhD student Yessenia Rivera, who was awarded an NSF Graduate Research Fellowship for her proposal, Setting the stage: A neurophysiological approach to memory development from childhood into adulthood!
Welcome Sophie Ack!
Welcome to PhD student Sophie Ack! During her rotation in the lab, Sophie will sort out the roles of prefrontal and posterior parietal cortices in working-memory based decision making using intracranial EEG. She holds a BA in Neuroscience with a Minor in Economics from Wellesley College.
