Thesis Thursday- Tiffany Cho
Tiffany talks with Bridgitte Thum at KXCI about what she’s been doing at The University Of Arizona.
I am a rising junior majoring in Neuroscience & Cognitive Science. Currently, in the lab of Dr. Haijiang Cai, we are using optogenetics, a technique that allows us to activate or silence neurons with light, to investigate the relationship between neural circuits in the amygdala that control feeding and anxiety. In my spare time, you can find me reading, playing an instrument, or eating good food.

The University of Arizona’s Undergraduate Biology Research Program is partnering with KXCI 91.3 to produce “Thesis Thursday,” a weekly segment featuring student researchers talking about their undergraduate thesis projects, or research projects while working with University professors. Students describe their research, their overall goals and career interests and where they think their research will lead. As well, they get a chance to share the music and interests that motivate them.
Broadcast three times every Thursday with a new student each week.
Thursdays: 9:55 AM, 11:55 AM, and 2:55 PM
Created by Cathy Rivers, produced by Bridgitte Thum.
