Chand Chandrasekaran
I conduct research to better understand how the brain processes complex uni- and multisensory input and generates the appropriate action at the right time. My research is guided by the ethos that understanding how the brain works will help us build better interventions for people with disabilities involving the nervous system. I expect my research […]

Tarik Haydar
Professor Haydar received his doctorate at the University of Maryland School of Medicine working on brain development in the Trisomy 16 mouse model of Down syndrome with Dr. Bruce Krueger. He completed postdoctoral studies at Yale University with Dr. Pasko Rakic examining control of forebrain neural precursor development and then started his independent laboratory at […]
Robert M. Joseph
Prof. Joseph received his doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of Massachusetts in 1996. He completed postdoctoral training in developmental neuropsychology in the Department of Psychiatry at Cambridge Hospital/Harvard Medical School. Prof. Joseph has been a faculty member of the Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology since 2001. Prof. Joseph researches the neuropsychology and neurobiology […]
Jennifer Luebke
Prof. Luebke maintains a laboratory in which whole-cell patch-clamp and intracellular filling techniques are used to examine the electrophysiological and morphological properties of neurons in in vitro slices of monkey and transgenic mouse neocortex. Research is focused on action potential firing patterns (and underlying ionic currents), glutamatergic and GABAergic synaptic response properties and detailed dendritic […]
Maria Medalla
Prof. Medalla received her Ph.D. in Applied Anatomy and Physiology at the Boston University Department of Health Sciences in 2008, working with Prof. Helen Barbas to study the structure of ‘cognitive control’ pathways in the prefrontal cortex (PFC) of non-human primates. Her studies in this lab were the first to utilize triple-labeling methods for electron […]
Tara Moore
Prof. Moore received her B.A. in psychology from the University of Calgary and her doctorate in Anatomy and Neurobiology from this department in 2000. She is currently a co-investigator in the Laboratory of Cognitive Neurobiology with Profs. Rosene and Mortazavi. This laboratory investigates the effects of aging and age-related disease on the structure and function […]
Mark Moss
Together with Prof. Douglas Rosene, Prof. Moss is co-director for the Laboratory for Cognitive Neurobiology. His studies focus on the neurobiology of learning and memory in non-human primate models, particularly with respect to aging and age-related disease. Specific interests include (1) the interaction of the prefrontal cortices with the medial temporal lobe limbic system in […]
