Amelia is a neuroscience student at Boston University with a minor in African American Studies. She is particularly interested in cognitive neuroscience, with a focus on auditory and linguistic processing. She began her involvement with the CBR by volunteering with the C.H.A.T. group and has since had the opportunity to contribute to a variety of projects. Through these experiences, she has enjoyed gaining hands-on experience with eye-tracking, clinical assessment batteries, and tDCS.
