Morgan Brody

Morgan is a sophomore at Loyola University Chicago, majoring in Cognitive and Behavioral Neuroscience and Anthropology. Her interest in neuroscience was first fostered in high school. Under the International Baccalaureate Program, she took three years of HL Psychology, during which elements of neuroscience were incorporated into the curriculum. Since then, Morgan has been especially interested in abnormal psychology and where it intersects with neuroscience—specifically PTSD/trauma and how it affects the HPA axis and the consolidation of memories on the cellular level. She is currently a pre-med student with a budding interest in research, hoping to pursue neurology. Morgan hails from Tampa, Florida and has a huge passion for linguistics/language-learning (driving her to major in Anthropology). She is also currently the secretary of LUC Swing Dance Club, and the CAN Representative of French Club. She loves jazz, cafés, the color pink, and is a huge cat person (despite having a lovely dog named Sheba).
