The Central Sulcus is part of the Graduates in Neuroscience (GIN) at Emory University, managed by an editorial team of four writers! We are all Neuroscience PhD students or candidates in the Emory Neuroscience Graduate Program. We write about graduate student life, neuroscience research, life on Emory's campus and living in Atlanta!

Y2, Shultz Lab
Hello, I am a second-year student working in the Shultz Lab where my research focuses on understanding the intersection of brain development, behavior, and autism using functional neuroimaging and computational methods. As a member of Emory’s Center for Mind, Brain and Culture program, I also have a passion for interdisciplinary study. I enjoy 3D printing, playing Go and reading non-fiction.

Y1, van Rooij Lab
I am a rising second year student studying the therapeutic application of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) in the Stress and Neuromodulation Lab under Dr. Sanne van Rooij. When I’m not working, you can usually find me in the gym or at home cuddling with my cat. Apart from science, I’m also really into makeup and fashion!

Y1, Shultz Lab
I am a rising second year student in the Schultz Lab at Marcus Autism Center. I am interested in developmental variations in human communication and social function, particularly how social, motor, and cognitive development in infancy interact to shape the early learning environment and future outcomes. Outside of lab, I enjoy rock climbing with my husband, reading about history and the natural sciences (recently space, dinosaurs, and the function of sleep), and playing The New York Times games.

Y1, Bassell Lab
Hi, I am a rising second year NS PhD student who recently joined Prof. Gary Bassell’s lab! Previously, during my master’s, I was involved in research that aimed to induce Parkinson’s disease in mice on pesticide exposure (did lots of immunohistochemistry). I am now exploring more of the molecular side of neuroscience (mRNA transport dynamics in a primary/immortalized neuronal cell culture system). Outside of research, I love reading work that explore the concepts of varying relationships between people in different socio-economic settings, and sometimes also enjoy sci-fi/ mystery/ fantasy! If I’m not reading, I’m catching up on some kdrama!
