Gabriella is a PiNBAC trainee from Hackensack, NJ, and a graduate of Stevens Institute of Technology, where she earned a B.S. in Chemical Biology with a minor in Philosophy. She is working in the Datta Lab, studying how sensory information is represented in the brain and transformed into behavior. Gabriella’s research interests include sensory neuroscience, neural plasticity, and the molecular mechanisms underlying behavior. Outside of the lab, she enjoys discovering new music and exploring new places. She is excited to immerse herself in the Harvard neuroscience community and develop the skills needed to pursue a career in neuroscience research.
