I received my B.S. in Physics with a minor in Mathematics from Bethel University in 2014. My undergraduate advisor at Bethel was Adam Johnson, with whom I mostly studied computational neuroscience. Our work focused on learning algorithms, such as reinforcement learning algorithms and nonparametric bayesian statistical methods, and neural reconstruction of place cells in the hippocampus, looking specifically at hippocampal replay within various tasks. Broad interests of mine include understanding the neural mechanisms underlying learning and memory and methods the brain might use to encode information.

Sarah took her talents to the other team at Princeton University. Although she lives on in every rat she babied, the hole she left in the lab could never be filled, like the hole in her castle on Planet Coaster, which she never finished building, because she was "too busy publishing".
