At Rutgers, she became fascinated with neurophotonics in the Margolis Lab while using two-photon microscopy in awake, behaving mice to study calcium activities of distinct cell populations in the striatum. Now, at Boston University&#8217;s Graduate Program for Neuroscience, Naomi is working in Dr. Ben Scott&#8217;s lab\u00a0studying adult neurogenesis <i>in-vivo\u00a0<\/i>in the zebra finch song system<i>,<\/i>\u00a0to better understand how endogenously generated neuroblasts navigate through adult\u00a0brain tissue and\u00a0incorporate into pre-established, behaviorally-relevant circuitry. She is utilizing multiphoton time-lapse microscopy and state-of-the-art image analysis tools to observe the dynamic, 4-dimensional migration of adult-born neurons in unanesthetized zebra finch birds. She expects to graduate in 2025.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":17358,"template":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/neurophotonics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/3737"}],"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\/3737\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3738,"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/neurophotonics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/profile\/3737\/revisions\/3738"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/neurophotonics\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3737"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
