  I volunteered my time with Dr. Dani Dumitriu in coordinating her Covid-19 Mother Baby Outcomes (COMBO) Study. I was a key member in screening and assessing Spanish speaking participants of which consisted of pregnant mothers, mothers who have recently given birth, and their infants. I conducted remote neuropsychological assessments for both mothers and infants. I have also assisted in the translation of IRB protocols.

  As part of the Bath Lab, we studied Early Life Adversity and its effects on development in mice. This included behavioral data as well as various techniques for tissue analysis. I developed a better understanding of Med Associate operant boxes and research methods. This allowed me to develop my own research project in studying social contagion via Social Fear Learning.
