Hi! I'm Dr. Ashburn, a post-doc at UNC (#ForeverDuke). My research uses fMRI and network-level analyses to study cerebellar involvement in neurodevelopmental disorders. I am also an educator (particularly neuroanatomy) and an outreach enthusiast. #BINW22 #BlackInNeuroRollCall

My best advice for new grad students: “Find your people” ✨ These can be folks in your program/department or completely unrelated to your field. But these are people who you can talk to, hang out with, commiserate with, and most importantly… #AcademicChatter #PhDChat
