She first became involved with neurophotonics after coming to BU and is currently using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) to study the motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson\u2019s disease (PD). For her dissertation, she is interested in using fNIRS to study the non-motor symptoms of cognition, positive affect, and humor in PD. She received her BA in Psychology and Integrative Physiology with a certificate in Neuroscience from the University of Colorado-Boulder, and her MSc in Human Cognitive Neuropsychology from the University of Edinburgh. She expects to graduate in 2025.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17358,"template":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/neurophotonics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/3673"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/neurophotonics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/neurophotonics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/profile"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/neurophotonics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/17358"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/neurophotonics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/3673\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3674,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/neurophotonics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/3673\/revisions\/3674"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/neurophotonics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3673"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
