Read our full interview with Lucas below!
What is your role in the lab?
I am a new research assistant for the lab assisting on all of our EEG studies and data collection.
What excites you most about your work?
I am most excited (and scared) about working with children as this aspect is completely new to me and different from what I have done before.
What do you like to do in your free time? Do you have any hobbies?
In my free time, I usually play video games, go on walks, cook, and travel. I most recently went on a road trip to Niagara Falls in Canada (see photo above), but I have also gone on road trips to Mackinaw, MI; Boston, MA; Chicago, IL; Omaha, NE; and Norfolk, VA to name a few.
Besides the unknowns around stuttering, what’s another scientific mystery that you find interesting?
Other than the unknowns of stuttering, another scientific mystery I find interesting deals with how personality factors could potentially affect one's likelihood for psychopathology.
