*[[Adrianne Huxtable]], an associate professor of human physiology and neuroscience at the [[University of Oregon]]. Research in the Huxtable laboratory focuses on the neural control of breathing (the central brainstem and spinal cord networks), with a specific focus on how inflammation (throughout the body and/or brain) undermines breathing.

*[[Angeles Ribera]], a professor of physiology and biophysicsin th [[University of Colorado School of Medicine]]. Ribera is interested in determining the mechanisms that direct differentiation of electrical excitability in neurons, and, in turn, how activity regulates neuronal development. Studies span the period from when neurons exit the cell cycle and begin terminal differentiation and to when synaptic interactions emerge. To have access to the relevant early stages of development, uses a classic vertebrate embryological system - the zebrafish, Danio rerio.

*[[Elinor Sullivan]], an associate professor of psychiatry, in the School of Medicine at [[Oregon Health Sciences University]](OHSU). Her research focuses on examining the influence of early environmental factors on child neurobehavioral regulation, with an emphasis on behaviors that relate to mental health and behavioral disorders including autism spectrum disorders, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, schizophrenia, anxiety, and depression.

*[[Nicole Swann]], as assistant professor of human physiology at the [[University of Oregon]].Nicole Swann is an academic expert in neuroscience, electrophysiology, and movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease. At the University of Oregon, she is an assistant professor of human physiology. Nicole studies how different parts of the human brain interact to generate and control movements and how these processes can be disrupted in disease.[https://uonews.uoregon.edu/nicole-swann-department-human-physiology]
