  Albany, New York Metropolitan Area The goal of my thesis project is to characterize the dopaminergic system of the cerebellum in Parkinson's Diseases. The cerebellum is a largely overlooked motor area of the brain making it a prime candidate for our investigation. I utilize animal behavior, electrophysiological and histological techniques to fill this essential gap in Parkinson's Disease research.
