Keaven Caro ’18
Class of 2018, Major in Biology and Behavioral Neuroscience, Minor in Dance and Chemistry
I spent three years working as a research assistant and then lab manager in Dr. Deirtra Hunter’s MMC Music, Mind and Brain Lab where we studied psychophysiological responses evoked by emotionally charged music in human participants. In my junior year, I interned as a research assistant in the Morishita lab at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai. This lab focused on synaptic plasticity and postnatal development of a neural circuit critical for visual-spatial attention. This internship led to a part-time job as a senior in college, then a full-time job for two years after graduation.
Dr. Hunter was diligent in her efforts to ensure I graduated with indispensable practical research experiences on and off campus that made me a competitive applicant for professional and academic positions.
