interdisciplinary research plays a vital role in building the
region’s economy. Our research contributes to our nation’s global
leadership in technology and innovation. Through collaboration
between our top-ranked hospital and veterinary school, as well as
our science and engineering discoveries, our research directly
improves American lives.
Dr. Guyer’s research focuses on the behavioral and neural
mechanisms that may underlie the way that adolescents think and
feel. One overarching question throughout her research is how
does attentional focus modulate the brain circuitry involved in
emotional responding?
Jonathan K. London received his degree in Environmental Science
Policy and Management from UC Berkeley in 2011. His research
addresses conflicts and collaboration in natural resource and
environmental issues, specifically on marginalized rural
communities and environmental justice issues in the Sierra Nevada
