ECR in Neuroscience Seminar Series

You are invited to join us for February’s Early Career Research in Neuroscience Seminar on Thursday, February 9, 2023, on Zoom.

Dr. Aqilah McCane, PhD, a Postdoctoral Fellow in the Department of Behavioral Neuroscience in Dr. Bita Moghaddam’s laboratory at Oregon Health and Science University, will join us to talk about her work researching neural mechanisms involved in adolescent addiction vulnerability (McCane et al, Journal of Neuroscience, 2021). This work has exciting implications for examining adolescent vulnerability factors for adult psychological illnesses such as addiction disorders, and in understanding the consequences of adolescent drug use on adult neural functioning.

Title: “Effects of adolescent alcohol exposure on cortico-striatal dynamics”
