Katherine Hamel Graduate Program for Neuroscience University of Minnesota Biography Publications Institution JoVE Articles Katherine Hamel Katie Hamel is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Minnesota in the Graduate Program for Neuroscience. She received her undergraduate degree in Biology from St. Olaf College in Northfield Minnesota.After graduating from St. Olaf Katie worked as an intern in the Center for Memory and Aging at Regions hospital in St. Paul Minnesota. While there, under the direction of Dr. Jared Fine, she worked on a study involving the testing of intranasal application of therapeutic agents to treat neurodegenerative diseases. Following this internship experience, Katie expanded her training by investigating traumatic brain injury at the Northern California Institute for Research and Education (NCIRE) at the VA Hospital in San Francisco California in the laboratories of Drs. Scott Panter and Raymond Swanson and on the underlying mechanisms of chronic pain and itch with Dr. Allan Basbaum’s lab at the University of California San Francisco.As a graduate student at the University of Minnesota, Katie studies the regional differences in disease progression across the cerebellum in Spinocerebellar Ataxia type 1 (SCA1) in the laboratory of Dr. Marija Cvetanovic.
