Recently worked with Kirsten and can only imagine what a great mentor she would be! Great chance to train with an amazing scientist in an outstanding psych and neuroscience environment!

If you are a member of CNS 2026 Annual Meeting , please consider voting for our symposium, organized by Agatha Lenartowicz for the 2025 meeting. Featured speakers would be Agatha, Brad Voytek, Cory Inman, and myself.

This note from the 1st recipient of our new scholarship brought a tear to my eye. The Earl K. Miller First Generation Scholarship is given to 1st generation college students at Kent State University. You can contribute. Contact: kent.edu/philanthropy Kent State
