Jennifer is a PhD candidate in the Department of Bioengineering at the University of Pittsburgh. She graduated from Virginia Commonwealth University in 2019 with a BS in Biomedical Engineering. Her undergraduate research ranged from developing fiber tractography models to better simulate transcranial magnetic stimulation to using high density EMG to map muscle activity in stroke patients.
Research Interest Summary
spatial neglect, TMS, EEG, stroke rehabilitation, robotics, cognitive neuroscience
Research Interests
Jennifer's research goals lie in improving cognitive and motor functions after stroke using non-invasive techniques. She is currently studying the neural correlates of stroke-induced spatial neglect and using transcranial magnetic stimulation to investigate post-stroke brain connectivity changes related to arm movements.
