Travis Reece
My current plan after graduation is to attend medical school and become a pediatric neurologist. My neurological interests are centered in neurological diseases and disorders, cognition and behavior, and determinants of sexuality. I want to work clinically with children that have neurological diseases and also do research in order to advance the current medical and scientific knowledge behind these diseases.
