Matthew Valley
Graduate Student
I am a recent graduate of Carleton College where I majored in neuroscience. Carleton is near Minneapolis Minnesota which is couple of hours away from where I grew up in Madison Wisconsin. In Madison, I worked in a lab at the University of Wisconsin using electrophysiology to study the functional alterations of the hippocampus in response to seizures. I usually assume that I'll do neurobiology in grad school, but that might change. In my free time I often sometimes practice the violin or piano and write music, but more often I will be searching for cheap things to do/eat, throw the frisbee, play mind-numbing computer games, mountain bike (which I guess isn't going to happen very often anymore), or just be outside.
