Principal Investigator (PI):
Jeremy Hogeveen, PhD: Jeremy's research focuses on understanding the neural circuits involved in emotional awareness, motivated decision-making, and cognitive control. He studies both healthy individuals and those with various forms of acquired and spontaneous psychopathology to understand how these processes can differ among people and across development.
When he's not immersed in research, Jeremy enjoys running, collecting/listening to vinyl, and passionately supporting the Toronto Maple Leafs and Chelsea Football Club. He has a penchant for eating overly spicy food for no good reason, and loves spending time with his wife, their two young kids, and two senior dogs.
Graduate Students:
Ethan Campbell, MS: Ethan graduated in 2017 from Centre College with a B.S. in Behavioral Neuroscience. He joined the lab in Fall, 2019 from the University of Kentucky where he worked as a clinical research assistant in human behavioral pharmacology. Ethan's research interests concern the effects of substance use and addictions on the brain mechanisms underlying behavior and emotional processing. He is also interested in how neuroimaging research can be better leveraged to understand people who use drugs and their experiences, as well as to treat substance use disorders more effectively. In his free time he enjoys going to concerts, movies, reading, and trivia.
Cidney Benta: Cidney graduated from the University of New Mexico with a B.S. in Psychology and Biology. Since then she has been working as a research assistant and coordinator in Dr. Mayer’s lab, where they studied the effects of traumatic brain injury on different populations. Cidney’s research interests include investigating the developmental trajectory of healthy adolescents, as well as those who experience traumatic brain injury or other pathology during development. She is also interested in examining the potential therapeutic and/or deleterious effects of medical cannabis for the use of chronic neurological and psychological disorders, as well as the development of standardized practices for the study of cannabis. She spends her free time trying new restaurants, camping, and spending time with her dogs.
Caty Enders: Caty Enders joins the Hogeveen Lab after years as a science journalist. She earned her B.A. from Northwestern University and held a Knight Science Journalism Fellowship at MIT. Her research is focused on the neuropsychological effects of social media and spans the neuroscience of decision-making, addiction, isolation, attention and false beliefs. She is personally fascinated by the history of psychopharmacology.
Research Assistants:
Maggie Austin: Maggie graduated from the University of New Mexico with a B.S. in Psychology and a minor in Biology. During her time in undergraduate, she completed an honors thesis on early biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease with Dr. Benjamin Clark as her mentor. Post-graduation, she spent a year working and learning in the Motivational Interviewing Lab at CASAA. Maggie’s research interests include neuroimaging, learning and memory, and substance use disorders. Outside of the lab, she enjoys cooking, tabletop gaming, rock climbing, and playing with her pets.
Lauren Brown: Lauren is finishing up a B.S. degree in Psychology with a minor in Statistics from the University of New Mexico. She has worked as a research assistant in Dr. Hogeveen’s lab since Summer 2022. She is a member of the Psychology Honors Program and is conducting research on the impact of short-form video addiction on attention. Her interests include the neural bases of attention, the physiological manifestations of neuropathology, and neuroimaging. In the Hogeveen Lab, Lauren assists in outreach and running participant visits. Outside of research, Lauren enjoys hanging out in coffee shops, hiking, and yoga.
Manar Al'Nouman: Manar graduated from the University of New Mexico with a BA in biology and a minor in psychology. While she was pursuing her undergraduate degree, she worked as a research assistant in the Cognitive Rhythms and Computation lab with Dr. Cavanagh. During her time there, she assisted in running participant visits, where she would help with collecting behavioral, EEG, MEG, and TMS data. Manar's research interests include the neurobiology of emotion, decision-making, and neurodevelopmental disorders. In her free time, she enjoys making jewelry, crocheting, skating, and being out in nature.
