Review company-level records connected to Kyle Born before choosing the right outreach path.
I am a third-year undergraduate student at Colgate University with honed interests in neurology and neuropharmacology. Working as a lab researcher under Dr. Wan-Chun Liu, I study the effects of artificial light at night (ALAN) on zebra finch vocal/spatial learning and neurogenesis in regions of interest (HVC, RA, mSt). Through my time in college, I have been a part of four research projects and choose course loads catered toward futures within neuroscience research (MD/PhD).

Hamilton, N.Y., Us
• Study the influence of ALAN (artificial light at night) on neurogenesis in the HVC (high vocal center) and Area X of Zebra Finches using a novel DCX (doublecortin) immunofluorescence protocol
Chicago, Illinois, Us
• Weekly clinic shadowing of Dr. Grant, an adult neurologist who specializes in neurodegenerative disorders
Chicago, Il, Us
• Practiced craniotomy, intracranial viral injection, and other stereotaxic surgeries on mice; injected Cre-dependent activity-dependent retroviruses into the striatum along with Cre in the primary motor cortex to selectively outline corticostriatal circuits involved in specific reaching behaviors• Analyzed study animals with PCR and gel electrophoresis for genotyping, vibratome sectioning and immunoassays for tissue labeling, and perfusion; ran behavioral tasks like rotarod and habituations while working to adapt the head-fixed water reaching task from Galiñanes et al. 2018• Both behavioral and histological results were used for an R01 grant proposal; participated in weekly lab meetings and biweekly department seminars from notable specialists in the field
Chicago, Illinois, Us
• Weekly clinic shadowing of Dr. Berry-Kravis, a pediatric neurologist running one of the largest Fragile X clinics in the country• Partook in clinic visits with patients, after-visit summaries, and work by the research study coordination team for gene therapies and other clinical trials
Hamilton, N.Y., Us
• Study the locomotive effects of ALAN (artificial light at night) by recording and quantifying zebra finch movement with EthoVision; conduct perfusion, brain sectioning, and immunohistochemistry on the analyzed birds to measure neurogenesis within the medial striatum• Instruct senior thesis students and lab volunteers basic to intermediate research procedures and methodology; maintain lab inventory and experimental animals• Create figures of labeled tissues and quantitative descriptions for publication using ImageJ
Hamilton, N.Y., Us
• Collected evidence on the higher cognitive effects of chronic ALAN through vocal and spatial behavioral tasks using the zebra finch; followed up with cell slicing after perfusion and antibody retrieval to evaluate the brain, specifically focusing on neurogenesis in the high vocal center and hippocampus• Enacted research protocol from previous publications to design spatial memory tasks in an aviary that would evaluate allocentric (declarative) spatial memory• Presented findings for 100+ individuals at annual Colgate Research Symposium (July 2023)
Hamilton, N.Y., Us
• Learned and practiced essential lab techniques with senior students; discussed observations and questions in weekly meetings with faculty• Assisted senior students in collecting evidence for their theses by aiding in a range of lab procedures involving pipetting, mixing solutions, harvesting organs, etc.
