| I recently graduated from the University of Idaho
with a Bachelor's degrees in Microbiology, Biochemistry and Spanish. I
collect behavioral data from the mice that we use to examine the
effects of different treatments designed to tell us about the NMDA
receptor we study. I also use the computer software program NIH Image
to analyze brain sections that have been processed with either in situ
hybridization to visual NMDA receptor RNA or receptor binding
techniques to examine receptor densities in different brain regions. I
am currently working on troubleshooting a protocol for
subfractionating brain tissue to examine the effects of aging on
different stages of receptor development. |
