Jeremy’s CV

Kalene Jasso

Biomed Sciences/Neuroscience Graduate Student

kalene.jasso@ufl.edu

Kalene received her Bachelor’s in Science in Biology and Life Sciences Communication at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2017. Her previous research experiences vary from relationship of sleep fragmentation and synaptic plasticity to using bioinformatics to study the diversification of alpine beetle species in regards to climate change. Her current research in the lab focuses on studying the neuromodulatory affects of MCHR1 on olfactory driven and motivated behaviors.

Patty Pozo

UF Undergraduate Student

My name is Patricia Pozo, I attend UF and I am projected to graduate Fall 2020. I am majoring in biology and minoring in health disparities. My project revolves around discovering if angiotensin receptors can be found in the Olfactory Bulb, which is primarily done by IHC procedures.

Hema Karlapudi

UF Undergraduate Student

Studying the effects of psychostimulants on cilia length and GPCR localization. Hema is a Microbiology and Behavioral Cognitive Neuroscience double-major, and is planning on graduating in 2021. She is investigating the impact of drugs on primary cilia length and functioning in the brain.

Chang-Hung Wu

Research Technician

Chang-Hung is a UF graduate and has joined the lab as research technician.

Brian Lee

McIntyre/Abisambra Lab Graduate Student

Brian is a UF PhD student in the neuroscience program rotating in the lab, joining the lab in a joined venture with Abisambra Lab. Modeling the classic "at the cyrostat" pose, and now working solely from home in art of literature review, Brian will be leading some new projects into how neurodegenerative processes affect cilia.

Thomas Everrett

Laboratory Technician

As a 2019 SNIP student to nvestigated the role of hypothalamic MCH neurons in modulating the olfactory bulb. Tom joins the lab having finished his B.S. at the University of Colorado, Denver, and will be leading studies on the role of neuronal cilia in behavioral responses to drugs of abuse.

PAST MEMBERS

Viktor Beilman

Visiting Scholar

Viktor joins the lab from RTWH Aachen University. He’s joining us to start some collaborations to look at modulatory processes in the main and accessory olfactory bulbs.

Magdalena Moskal

UF Undergraduate Student

Maggie was a UF undergraduate double majoring in Behavioral and Cognitive Science as well as Spanish. She completed her B.S. and is off to join the clinical psychology program at the University of South Carolina in the fall of 2020.

Lindsey Jackson

UF Undergraduate Student, 2019-2020 University Scholar

Lindsey graduated from UF in spring 2020 with a Senior thesis investigating the behavioral effects of a novel mutation in the adenylyl cyclase, ADCY3. She’ll be working towards medical school in the future.

Tyler Ten Eyck

Research Technician

Tyler received his B.S. Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience from the University of Florida and worked on how cilia loss affected responses to cocaine. He’s off to continue his pursuit of a PhD in neuroscience.

Carlos Ramos

Research Technician

Carlos was an integral tech in the lab helping to maintain the mouse colony, perform behavior experiments, and molecular cloning.
