Weekends are for running plates!

A little introduction..... My name is Ericka and I am currently working on my dissertation disassociating the effects of ethanol exposure during prenatal vs. perinatal development on spatial orientation and gross-motor control.

Other interests include assessing the effects of acute (TBI, stroke, radiation, EtOH) and progressive (AD) brain damage on fine-motor control #StringPulling , gross-motor control #Gait , spatial orientation #OpenField #Navigation , and alterations to the brain #IHC. Happy to be here!

@jimiadams @academicchatter low budget, user friendly option: blank slide on PowerPoint… the draw function is initiated with a Bluetooth stylist during presentation mode. This obviously requires a touch screen laptop but has worked wonders for me in the past! Also helps reduce transition from: presenting lecture -> additional whiteboard program -> presenting lecture.
