Common FaQs
How can you possibly have a Facts and Questions Page?
Excellent question! The following are questions have been prompted by new clients, future work associates, friends, or when I explain to my grandmother what I "do".
Laura, what is your current Job?
Currently, I work full-time as a Research Specialist for the Kable Lab (website link) at the University of Pennsylvania. Essentially I am the lab manager and I help run experimental studies. The Kable Lab's research involves decision-making neuroscience. More information on some research projects I've worked on click here!
What is your highest education?
Currently I am working part-time towards a Mastery degree at the University of Pennsylvania. My chosen degree is "Masters in Behavior and Decision-Making Sciences" also known as the MBDS program. I applied to this program to aid in my transition from academia to an industry job, and it has been an amazing experience. I am set to graduate spring 2024.
Aside from science, do you have any hobbies?
I love creating art, reading, cooking, yoga, and taking pictures of my cat. Before graduate school, I was a twitch streamer for about a year. I used that time to see if I would enjoy working in science communication by creating presentations about scientific papers, and teach about neuroscience. I also used that time to learn how to create digital art (since most of my skill up until that point was all hands on art). I am always using opportunities to learn new skills. Working full-time as the Lab Manager and part-time as a graduate student, many of my hobbies have been put to the side - can't wait to graduate!
