Greetings and Welcome!

I am a Neuroscience researcher in the Minnesota Inclusive Neuroscience Development Scholars (MINDS) program at the University of Minnesota. I recently graduated from St. Olaf College with a bachelors of arts double majoring in Psychology and Biology with a Neuroscience concentration. My research interest is to understand the neuroscience of neuropsychiatric disorders and to explore the complex brain circuitry. I am currently working on studying the anatomical connectivity of the posteromedial cortex in humans using non-human primates at the Heilbronner Lab. If you have questions about my research experience,or any questions, please feel free to reach out. I can be reached at: aguil194@umn.edu


Workshops and Seminars

Interested in the Neuroscience of Addiction? Consider attending the Minnesota Symposium on Addiction Neuroscience (MnSAN), The one-day conference will bring together fundamental scientists, clinician-scientists, and others to discuss the most recent and exciting advances in addiction brain research. Dr. Rajita Sinha, Foundations Fund Endowed Professor in Psychiatry and Professor in Neuroscience and Child Study at Yale University School of Medicine, will be the keynote speaker for the scientific program. Presentations will focus on how addiction and recovery alter the brain circuits that drive emotions, motives, and decision-making, with an eye on how neurocircuit research might guide the development of new, more effective addiction treatments.
