We have lots of fun events coming up so make sure you are following along with us!
The traditional candle light ceremony honoring the The traditional candle light ceremony honoring the letters of NuRhoPsi Nu - meaning mind Rho - meaning to cure Psi - meaning life ••• These letters represent goal our society is rooted it: to cure psychological and neurological disorders that plague human kind. The advancement of knowledge about the brain is the best hope we have for achieving this goal.
Meet a professor!! Professor Melloni is pictured h Meet a professor!! Professor Melloni is pictured here with NuRhoPsi alumni Danielle Voke and Michelle Jeffery. He is one of Northeastern’s Professors of Psychology who teaches neuroscience electives including Psychopharmacology and and Clinical Neuroanatomy. His research focuses on aggression in both basic science and clinical phases with focus on the effects of drugs of abuse and social stressors on offensive aggression as well as biological markers of aggression and treatment for aggressive behavior. Professor Melloni is a strong supporter of NU NRP and a club favorite for professor lunches.

Dr. Mitra Hartmann (Northwestern University) will Dr. Mitra Hartmann (Northwestern University) will be our speaker at today’s meeting! As an affiliated investigator in the Neuroscience and Robotics Lab (NxR) at Northwestern, her work focuses on exploring the sense of touch. Current efforts in the lab focus developing a computational model for how sensory information from the whiskers of rats is coded and processed in the nervous system and how this information is used to explore the rat’s environment and guide its actions. You can find more about Dr. Hartmann at http://hartmann.mech.northwestern.edu/index.php

Today’s alumna feature is: Antoinette Charles, a Today’s alumna feature is: Antoinette Charles, a GSU NRP Scholar & Alumna National Institute of Mental Health IRTA Fellow | Gates Millennium Scholar | Georgia State University Alumna A message from Antoinette: “I am proud to announce that I have been selected as one of the 2019-2020 National Institute of Health (NIH) Academy Fellows. In addition to my post-baccalaureate research fellowship in the National Institute of Mental Health, participating as an Academy Fellow will cultivate my intellectual curiosity on factors that relate to health disparities and what is currently being done to address the gaps. The workshops, career panels, and diversity retreat will provide the opportunity to learn how to serve as an effective advocate in mitigating injustices within medicine directly from health scientists. Most importantly, I have the chance to work with experts to design and implement a yearlong community outreach project. I look forward to developing a project geared towards addressing the mental health disparity within the African American community. The NIH Academy Fellowship aligns with my career aspirations of becoming a clinician-scientist with a health disparities research focus." Join Nu Rho Psi in congratulating her many achievements & in being such an exemplary NRP scholar 👏 #nurhopsi #nurhopsiatgsu #neuroscience #georgiastateuniversity #nih #stem #stemresearch #mentalhealth #blackwomenlead #blackwomeninstem

Akinetopsia: a neuropsychological disorder that di Akinetopsia: a neuropsychological disorder that disables a patient from perceiving motion. The middle temporal visual area (V5) is a commonly damaged area associated with akinetopsia! A #georgiastateuniversity Neuroscience Institute student put together this flip book to demonstrate viewing a world in “discontinuous motion”. Let us bring awareness to the importance of studying Neuroscience. Due to the complexity of the brain and nervous system, many neurological disorders can arise that influence people’s day-to-day lives and as a community, we must address this and research more solutions! #neuroscience #nurhopsi #nurhopsiatgsu #georgiastateuniversity #akinetopsia #neuropsychology #neuropsychologicaldisorders #neuroscienceresearch #stemart

#NRPmemberofthemonth for the month of August goes #NRPmemberofthemonth for the month of August goes to Dana Eap! Not only has she been an eager volunteer for GSU’s NRP outreach events, but she has also been resourceful and outstandingly prepared! Congratulations Dana💓 Thank you for being such a wonderful member of GSU’s NRP Chapter🧠 Background on Dana: She is a Neuroscience major in the dual M.S/B.S program at #georgiastateuniversity currently in the M.S. portion of the program and will be obtaining her Masters in May 2020. Why she chose Neuroscience? “I enjoy studying behavior and the mechanisms underlying it, which lead me to become a neuroscience major in the first place because it could help me find these answers” Current Research: “Right now I’m currently working in Dr. Derby lab where I study White Pacific Shrimp, which are major species in shrimp aquaculture, and I am looking into their chemosensory basis of feeding behavior” Our FAVORITE question- Why Nu Rho Psi? “I decided to join NPR because i really wanted to get more involved in Neuroscience outside of the classroom and I think NPR was the perfect opportunity to do so” #nurhopsi #nurhopsiatgsu #neuroscience #research #neuroscienceresearch #stem #poncecitymarket
