Eli received her Ph.D. from the University of Edinburgh in human cognitive neuroscience. She is interested in studying the cognitive and neural bases of sensory-motor functions in neurologically intact individuals and patients with brain damage.
Graduate Students
Anu is a first year grad student interested in studying the neural correlates of multisensory integration and body representation in the brain.
Riwa is a first year PhD student interested in exploring the neurological mechanisms underlying body representation.
Undergraduate Students
Sophia is a senior neuroscience major with minors in biology and cognitive science. She hopes to earn her Ph.D. and pursue a career in neuroscience.
Lexi is a junior psychology and cognitive science major who hopes to get her Ph.D. Her psychology major led her to the lab, where she hopes to learn more about conducting research and cognitive embodiment.
Katie is a junior psychology major who is interested in the studies of both cognitive embodiment and the effects of aphasia. She is excited to do research and hopes to attend graduate school after earning her undergraduate degree here at the University of Delaware.
Grace is neuroscience major and biology minor who hopes to go to medical school and become a psychiatrist. She is interested in learning more about how strokes and various conditions effect a subject’s perception of themselves, as well as the research methods and neuroimaging behind it.
Deeanne is a senior neuroscience major with a minor in public health. She is interested in learning more about the effects of brain damage on cognition and perception. She hopes to attend medical school after she graduates from UD.
Amanda is a junior medical diagnostics major with minors in biological sciences and Spanish for healthcare. She plans to continue onto medical school and was drawn into the lab by her interest in how the brain processes various types of information.
