Treistman Lab Student Publications
This collection showcases the journal articles and other publications authored by students in the Treistman Lab. The Treistman Lab was located at the University of Massachusetts Medical School from 2001-2005, in the Department of Neurobiology. The Treistman Lab relocated to the University of Puerto Rico School of Medicine, San Juan, PR. Dr. Treistman is now retired from UPR and is an affiliated member of the Department of Neurobiology, see http://profiles.umassmed.edu/Profiles/display/130725. Student authors are John J. Crowley (Neuroscience Program, 2003), Keith Tully (Neuroscience Program, 2004), Paula L. Feinberg-Zadek (Neuroscience Program, 2005) and Patricia Wynne (Neuroscience Program, 2008).
