Background:
Juliana Chase participated in the inaugural fellows cohort as a 5th year PhD student in Behavioral & Systems Neuroscience at UC Berkeley. Juliana’s dissertation work employed experimental and computational techniques to better understand neural circuit differences in mouse models of autism. Throughout her PhD, Juliana has been interested in what happens when science leaves the lab and has been engaged with science policy and outreach organizations on campus. As a fellow, Juliana built on her experience as an organizer and science communicator to explore how scientists can partner with affected communities and diverse disciplines throughout the research process to create stronger and more effective science.
