Steven Wilson

I have always been interested in technology and people and even switched between majoring in psychology and computer science during my undergraduate studies. During graduate school, for the first time, I had the chance to blend these interests with an interdisciplinary research project on computational approaches to modeling personal values as expressed in language. That ...

Catherine Kaczorowski

The Kaczorowski laboratory, led by Dr. Catherine Kaczorowski, pioneers techniques to identify and validate genetic and cellular mechanisms that promote resilience to cognitive aging, Alzheimer’s disease, and other age-related dementias. By combining mouse and human systems; genomic, anatomic, and behavioral approaches; and integrative analyses across multiple scales, data types, environmental factors, and species, we are ...
