Students Present for Society of Neuroscience

Biology majors Michael Rossetti, a senior, and Brian Sposato, a junior, presented a poster at the annual meeting of the Society for Neuroscience. Their presentation, entitled "Serotonin and the Development of Breathing Behavior: Lessons from the Pet-1 Knockout Mouse", describes the findings of work done as independent study students of Dr. Jeff Erickson of the Biology Department. Participation in this conference is noteworthy, since it is an annual meeting of international scope that brings together approximately 25,000 researchers in the field of neuroscience from around the world. The conference was held October 14th-18th in Atlanta, Georgia.
