Morgan and Nikhita present at the Summer Institute Research Symposium hosted by UCI’s CNLM

The Summer Institute in Neuroscience Program is a research experiences program hosted by UCI’s Center for the Neurobiology of Learning and Memory (CNLM), the NSF and DoD-Funded Research Experience for Neuroscience Program, and the UC Office of the President UC-HBCU Program. Our lab mentored 2 students from the 2022 cohort, and they each led their own research projects.

Morgan Skinner analyzed path preferences within an immersive virtual environment, and Nikhita Kaushik analyzed the relationship between survey and graph knowledge. At the conclusion of their 8-week program, they presented their work at the Summer Institute Research Symposium during an elevator pitch presentation and a poster session. Great work, Morgan and Nikhita!
