KeystoneShaneDVS Report | 05/22/2012 9:09 am: Best of luck on your Parkinsons Disease research. My grandma had it. She died in the early 90s. She was around 80 when she died, but spent her last few years in a nursing home. I hope your research will help at least one family from having to go through it. Again, best of luck.
The_science_master Report | 05/11/2012 7:53 pm: First off, grad students are AWESOME! I can totally relate to what you're studying. Well not fully relate but I'm always psyched to see other people interested in neuroscience as this is such a huge aspect of my life right now.

So Good luck in the grad program and look forward to reading your future work in academic journals! mrgreen

About

About Nora!

I've been a member of Gaia since July of 2003. I worked for Gaia as a moderator and then admin from 2004 till the end of 2010, and now I am focused full time on finishing my doctorate. Working for Gaia was a fascinating and educational experience, and although it had ups and downs, I wouldn't trade it for anything. <3

Off the Internets, I'm 28 years old and I live in NYC with an assortment of cats, hamsters, and plants. I collect art, love to cook (especially Indian and Thai food), read voraciously, spend way too much time playing with cosmetics, and am addicted to chocolate. I am an avid music lover and a knitter when I have time (which is rare these days).

I am a doctoral student pursuing a PhD in Clinical Neuropsychology so that I can (some day!) become a practicing clinical neuropsychologist. My research area of interest is the neuropsychology of emotion. I am especially interested in empathy, as well as how the brain produces emotional experience. My current research projects specifically involve emotional functioning in subjects with Parkinson's Disease and in healthy older adults.

I love comments! If you have any (non-Gaia) questions or comments, please post and I'll do my best to comment back. smilies/icon_heart.gif

If you have comments turned off, please don't ask me a question! I do actually try to reply back to comments, but I will do so by leaving you a comment! If you have comments turned off, no reply for you! And that is sad. smilies/icon_sad.gif

Art Collection & Commissions

As I mentioned earlier, I collect art! I have over 2000 pieces of art in my collection at this time. To see just a few examples of these, please visit my Art Gallery. My full gallery is sadly not very updated, but if you are interested in seeing more, go here and here

If you are interested in doing a commission for me and would like to see my references and post your samples and prices, stop by my Art Request Thread!

Just a note, I did not make any of the art in my profile, nor am I an artist. So please don't send me PMs asking me to make you art! Not only is this rude, but you really don't want me to draw you so much as a stick figure, I assure you. smilies/icon_gonk.gif

And although it should go without saying, please do not use any of my art or code, either from my profile or my request thread/gallery. This would be stealing and would make me very unhappy.
