This Health Research Program opportunity is with Dr. Timothy Spellman, Department of Neuroscience.
Project Description: This project investigates how the neurotransmitter acetylcholine supports cognitive flexibility in mice performing attentional set-shifting and reversal learning tasks. Students will assist in behavioral testing, data collection, and basic analysis using established rodent cognitive paradigms. The work will contribute to ongoing studies linking neuromodulatory signaling to executive function and decision-making. Prior experience with animal handling is helpful but not required; training will be provided.
