Thesis Title:
TrkB as a Mediator of Striatal Learning and Memory
I would like to first thank my Principal Investigators, Donna Korol, Ph.D and Paul Gold, Ph.D for their continuous support and counsel throughout my three years of research in their laboratory. I also thank my research mentors, Robert Gardner, Ph.D, Stephen Olubusayo Ajayi, and Alesia Prakapenka, Ph.D, for the many hours they invested in training and mentoring me in my growth as a researcher. Thank you to my academic advisor and reader, Kari Segraves, Ph.D for her mentorship and counsel during my undergraduate years and this research process. This project would not have been possible without the support of my lab mates, the exceptional work of the Laboratory Animal Resources (LAR) staff, and the funding sources listed below.
