• Examining the Impact of Guided Memory Retrieval on Intrusive Memories: An Online Trauma Film Paradigm Study 

  Gauthier, Gabrielle M.

  Intrusive memories are a cardinal symptom of chronic post-traumatic mental health problems (e.g., Brewin et al., 2010). Post-event memory processing may be a key facilitator of remission of intrusive memories (Marks et ...

• Inclusive gender cognition: Exploring gender categorization with diverse gender identities

• Representation of Plume Dynamics by Mitral and Tufted Cells in the First Relay of Mouse Olfactory Processing 

  Lewis, Suzanne Michelle

  In ethologically relevant environments odor molecules travel in plumes. As a result, an odor does not diffuse slowly through the air, but rather is pulled and pushed stochastically away from its source in discrete filaments. ...

• Impacts of the Medial Prefrontal Cortex and Hippocampus in Decision-Making 

  Kidder, Kevan S

  The Hippocampus (HPC) and medial Prefrontal Cortex (mPFC) are known to be two of the most vital structures underlying decision-making and spatial working memory (SWM) abilities across species. Known for its role in episodic ...

• Gentrification Causes Social Class Disparities in Belonging 

  Song, Rachel

  Gentrification impacts nearly every major metropolitan area in the U.S. One critique of gentrification is that the influx of wealthy newcomers and the associated change to the neighborhood threatens working-class residents’ ...
