The Team

Dr. Chambers joined the lab in November of 2021. She is interested in the neural correlates of motor and non-motor symptoms of movement disorders. Outside of the lab she enjoys hiking, kayaking, and playing the clarinet and piano.

Dr. Sahagian joined the lab in Summer 2025. He is interested in the balance between excitation and inhibition mechanisms in cellular and synaptic networks and how these components integrate into larger cellular systems in states of good health and in various health conditions. Aside from his work in the laboratory, Todd enjoys running, biking, cooking, and spending time with his loved ones.

Ignacio joined the lab in March of 2023. He is interested in understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying various neurodegenerative diseases to pave the way for novel therapeutics. In his free time, Ignacio enjoys working out, traveling, and playing the drums.

Jessica joined the lab in March of 2024. Outside of the lab she is a sports fan and avid soccer player.

Camille joined the lab in the summer of 2025. Her primary research goal is understanding the microcircuitry of neurons affected in GNAL-linked dystonia. In her spare time, she likes to work out, play the flute, and travel.

Rick joined the lab as a volunteer in spring of 2024. He is the Founder and President of Tyler’s Hope for a Dystonia Cure.

Barbara joined the lab in the spring of 2023 as an undergraduate research assistant. She then went on to participate in the Summer Neuroscience Internship Program and is now working in the lab as a Postbac through the Gator Aid Program.

Alex joined the lab in Summer of 2024 and is a senior Behavioral & Cognitive Neuroscience major. He is currently completing an honor’s thesis in the Moehle lab which focuses on neural activity during reach-to-grasp behaviors in cerebellar Gnal knockout animals.

Gavin joined the lab in Fall of 2024 and is a third-year biology major. Outside of the lab he plays in the marching band.

Kate joined the lab in the Summer of 2025 and is a third year Health Science Major.

Mary joined the lab in summer 2025 and is a double-major in behavioral and cognitive neuroscience and nutritional sciences.

Ryan joined the lab in summer of 2025. He is a third-year kinesiology major at UF.

Giuseppe joined the lab in Spring of 2025 and is majoring in chemical engineering.
