B.S. Neuroscience, SUNY Geneseo, Geneseo, NY
Molly first joined the lab of Dr. Terrence Bazzett where she investigated sex differences in fine motor degeneration in Huntington's disease mice, and her senior capstone examined the effects of a ketogenic diet on stereotypic motor behaviors in mice. She also worked with Dr. Jason Ozubko to investigate the development of spatial environments in humans through virtual reality.
She next worked under Dr. Rashid Deane as a lab technician at the University of Rochester where she studied cerebrospinal fluid outflow kinetics in the context of Alzheimer's disease.
In the Moss lab, she is investigating the role of LMTK3 in regulating GABA A receptor trafficking in inhibitory synapses and how this contributes to dysfunction in the brain.
Outside the lab, she enjoys hiking, skiing, and exploring New England. She also appreciates trying new restaurants in Boston.
