Gabriella Espada
Undergraduate Researcher
Biography
I am a freshman majoring in Neuroscience, originally from Windermere, Florida, and currently living in Pasquerilla West Hall. I plan to pursue a career in psychiatry and am especially interested in research that connects cognitive neuroscience with mental health and clinical applications.
As a research assistant in the Controlled Attention and Memory (CAM) Lab, my interests center on individual differences in cognition and the factors—such as motivation, stress, and fatigue—that influence cognitive performance. Through my work, I am gaining experience with experimental, correlational, and psychophysiological research methods.
