Meet our new RAs!
Meghan, Celina, Ray, and Riley are our new research assistants. We’re happy to welcome them to the BAM Lab!
Meghan Buchanan
Meghan is a first-year student at University of Oregon majoring in psychology and minoring in music studies. Her main interests are neuroanatomy as it relates to disorders and music’s affect on the brain. She plans to travel and attend graduate school after attaining her bachelor’s degree.
Celina Maldonado
Celina is majoring in psychology and linguistics with a minor in chemistry. Her primary interest is neuroscience. She’s still deciding between going to medical school or graduate school after she graduates.
Ray Jackson
Ray is a psychology major with an emphasis in cognitive neuroscience. Her main interests are attention and memory, including Alzheimers and ADHD research. In her free time, Ray is a professional juggler and circus artist.
Riley Christensen
Riley is a psychology major at the University of Oregon and is in his junior year. He is particularly interested in cognitive neuroscience and intends on attending graduate school in Sweden after getting his degree next spring.
Louis just joined our lab!
Louis is a post baccalaureate student who is studying chemistry at the University of Oregon. He is a student veteran, and his first degree is in Social Science from Western Oregon University. His primary goal is going to medical school specializing in primary care.

Alisha received the Clarence and Lucille Dunbar Scholarship
Alisha was awarded the Clarence and Lucille Dunbar Scholarship for the upcoming academic year. This scholarship recognizes high achieving undergraduate and graduate students in the areas of biology, chemistry, computer and information science, human physiology, geological sciences, mathematics, physics, or psychology (including general science). Congratulations Alisha!
Takako received the VPRI Undergraduate fellowship
 |
Takako has received the The Vice President for Research and Innovation (VPRI) Undergraduate Fellowship award fellowship. She has founding to spend the summer conducting full-time research in our lab. Congratulation Takako! |
Meet Sara, our new SPUR student
Sara is our new SPUR student. She will spend the summer with us! She is currently completing her B.A. in psychology at California State University, Fullerton. She is a scholar in the Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) Program, and works in the vision lab of Dr. Eriko Self in the Department of Psychology. She is investigating the effects of normal aging on attention, specifically top-down and bottom-up controls of attention. She hopes to obtain her PhD. in cognitive psychology and study memory formation, particularly the construction of false memories.
