STEM Squad Profile: Julia Licholai

Hello! I am a graduate student living near DC. My favorite neuroscience studies are those that pinpoint cells and circuits that produce certain behaviors. Luckily, I currently study various pathways involved in reflexes that go through the brain. Therefore, I have no plans to leave academia yet. But whatever happens, I still have a long ways to go as a student and then a postdoc.

Outside of lab, I paint! I also started rock climbing! I am aiming to publish a children's book and climb a 5.12 outside when I graduate. .
