Graduate program:  Wesleyan University, Biology Department, Dr. Stephen Devoto's Laboratory. Focus was on slow muscle cell specification during embryonic development and larval growth. In addition, I examined the role Hh signaling plays in sclerotome development in zebrafish.
Postdoctoral position: University of Massachusetts, Amherst. Dr. Rolf Karlstrom's Laboratory. Focus was on Hedgehog regulation of the axon guidance environment at the midline of the forebrain.
Current position: Assistant professor, Biology Department, Smith College. My lab is focused on defining the axon-glial cell interactions that occur at the midline in the forebrain.
