Jeremy McIntyre, Ph.D.

Kalene Jasso
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.

Brian Lee
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.

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

Thomas Everrett
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.

Hema Karlapudi
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.

Arthur Zimmerman, PhD

Stephanie Yuan

Pdawg
The most senior member of the groups, Pdawg is a spunky mutt, who combines a highly motivated (food) drive with a quick learning can do attitude. A lover of longer runs and novel smells, she keeps the boss company while working from home, mostly by making sure the bed doesn’t move.
