Abstract
ECR Spotlight is a series of interviews with early-career authors from a selection of papers published in Journal of Experimental Biology and aims to promote not only the diversity of early-career researchers (ECRs) working in experimental biology during our centenary year, but also the huge variety of animals and physiological systems that are essential for the ‘comparative’ approach. Veronica Rivi is an author on ‘ Invertebrates as models of learning and memory: investigating neural and molecular mechanisms’, published in JEB. Veronica is a post-doctoral researcher in the lab of Joan M. C. Blom and Fabio Tascedda at the University of Modena and Reggio Emilia, Italy, investigating the conserved molecular mechanisms that promote maladaptive behaviors and psychiatric disorders, such as depression and schizophrenia. In doing so, she hopes to improve treatment options and outcomes for individuals suffering from such disabling disorders.
