Raina Hutchinson

Hello! My research interests lie in the realm of computational neuroscience, at the intersection of clinical neuroscience and bioengineering. My first research experience was in the Granato lab, funded by CURF's PURM program, where I investigated the role of huntingtin-associated proteins in nerve cell axon regeneration following injury, using the zebrafish animal model. Currently, I am working with Dr. Kate Davis. My summer project, funded by the Frances Velay Fellowship, focused on mapping brain language networks using resting-state fMRI, with potential applications for improving presurgical planning in epilepsy patients.
