April 8: UNM Field Trip

Off we went to UNM at 7am...

Dr. Julia Stephen gave us a tour of the MIND Imaging Center. We saw new technology with MEG and BabySquid as well as EEG and MRI.

Psychology Department Chair ,Dr. Ronald Yeo, gave us a nice welcome to the psychology department and all it has to offer.

We visited Dr. Akaysha Tang's rat lab where she is researching what happens to rats who spent 3 minutes away from their mothers for the first three weeks of their lives.

We also visited research labs in positive psychology and health issues including one study with firefighters.

We ate lunch at the duck pond.

We attended the Abnormal Psychology lecture.
