Teigan Brown ’25, a neuroscience major, conducts research in the lab of Stanley Road Professor of Neuroscience Jeremy Teissere.

“The culture of the Teissere lab is very unique. It’s important to me to be around people who care about the work that I’m doing, who care about me, and who I also care about,” she says. “[Teissere] has uplifted me and supported me through this entire process while making sure that it is an experience that is completely authentic to me. I’m just so proud of how far this project has come.”
