My Furman Advantage Experiences:

Study Away- I participated in DIS Copenhagen, an affiliate study away program to Copenhagen, Denmark in the fall of 2024.
Research-I did Behavioral Neuroscience research with Dr. Flores in the summer of 2024, studying the role of the basolateral amygdala on the impact of innocuous taste experiences on long term memory persistence. Presented at 2025 SC INBRE conference and the 2024 NISBRE Symposium in Washington, DC

Three words that describe Furman:
