Connor is a graduate student in the Neuroscience Training Program. Broadly, he is interested in the neural circuitry underlying anxiety and depression, and the development of more effective treatments for these conditions. He aims to further bridge the gap between clinical therapeutic outcomes and the neuropharmacology of rapid-acting antidepressants, such as ketamine and psilocybin, using non-human primate models. Additionally, he is an advocate for science outreach and education. Outside of academia, he can be found exploring the outdoors, diving into philosophy, or discovering new music.
