Spring 2021 Seminar “Mediating individual variation in Pavlovian conditioned responses”

 Spring 2021 Seminar  “Mediating individual variation in Pavlovian conditioned responses”

  • Monday, April 14, 2021 4:00 pm 
  • Dr. Joshua Haight, Assistant Professor of Psychology
  • “Mediating individual variation in Pavlovian conditioned responses”
  • Dr. Joshua Haight has been an Assistant Professor of Psychology and Behavioral Neuroscience, Quinnipiac University since August 2019. Prior to that, he was a Postdoctoral Associate in the Addy Lab, Department of Psychiatry, Yale University. He graduated from the University of Michigan with a PhD in Neuroscience. He has studied extensively the role of the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus in mediating individual variation in conditioned responses. He has published a book chapter and nine articles in such prestigious journals as Behavioral Brain Research, Neuropsychopharmacology, Neuroscience, and PLosOne. His current research continues with examining the role of the paraventricular nucleus of the thalamus (PVT) in motivated behaviors, specifically in response to reward-paired cues.
