Lavonna Mark

Lavonna is a neurosciences PhD student in Lisa Giocomo’s lab. She is interested in how neural circuits dynamically change their coding strategies across behavioral states. Previously, she studied this question in the rodent visual system in the Cardin and Higley Labs at the Yale School of Medicine. Now, she studies these questions in the downstream entorhinal cortex, using a combination of in vivo electrophysiology and computational approaches. In her free time, she enjoys running, biking, swimming, and hanging out with friends.
