Dlovan D. Mahmood

I am conducting research on the GABA-ergic system in Drosophila. I am a PhD student in Biology. dlovan.kurdi at uky.edu

Kristin Weineck

Exchange student from Germany for the summer of 2017

Samuel Wycoff

I was a high school student from Dunbar conducting research in the lab and now I am an undergraduate at UK working on the neural regulation and environmental issues in a crayfish model

I am addressing cellular functions in recruitment of synaptic vessicle pools in phasic and tonic motor nerve terminals. rspo223 at g.uky.edu

Jenni Ho

Spring 2016. I am working on how various diets alter the larval life span and how they produce alterations in the development and function of the neuromuscular junctions. I am also interested in how the developmental effects will be manifested in alterations in sensory-motor behaviors.

Jennifer McCall

These two are really not joined at the head. Jenny will be working on projects which involve effects on synaptic transmission with the potential of enhanced and dampened retrograde feedback of target tissue. She is starting in the summer 2017.
