JORDAN JANZEN-MEZA, GRADUATE STUDENT, NEUROSCIENCE PROGRAM

 

I am interested in the intersection between neural dynamics and neurological disorders.

Identifying common system and circuit mechanisms underlying polygenetic conditions such as autism spectrum disorders and Alzheimer's disease has great potential to improve diagnostic accuracy and enable treatments.

I am using a combination of human and mice models to investigate the interdependence of single unit activity, local field potentials, and critical dynamics in these conditions.

Outside of lab I transform into an invertebrate void of consciousness.
