Cameron Ogg joins the Biology Department and Neuroscience Program as an Assistant Professor. Dr. Ogg received her PhD in Neurobiology from the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in 2017. She comes to Rhodes following her postdoctoral training at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Dr. Ogg’s research interests center on the neuromodulation of behavioral flexibility. In both graduate school and in her postdoc work, she used in vivo calcium imaging to explore how neural activity in certain brain areas is organized, how that organization is affected by certain neurotransmitters, and what effect those changes have on behavior. Last year, Dr. Ogg taught at Rhodes as a St. Jude CAP (Career Advancement Program) Fellow. She will continue to teach courses such as Intro Bio, Senior Neuroscience Seminar, and Sensory Neurobiology.
