Research summary
AI-generated

Michelle Frankot studies how brain injury and diet affect behavior in rats, focusing on topics like decision-making, impulsivity, feeding behavior, and cognitive flexibility after traumatic brain injury. The research combines behavioral testing with neural measures (such as brain oscillations) to understand how injury and diet-related factors change learning, reward processing, and eating patterns, and whether behavioral interventions can help reverse injury-related deficits.
