Autumn Kujawa complete a postdoctoral research fellowship training year at the University of Illinois Chicago from 2015-2016. During this time, Autumn trained in neuroscience and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) methods, presented at conferences and published papers from a pediatric anxiety treatment study. For training in neuroscience, Autumn attended talks through the UIC Department of Psychiatry’s Behavioral and Cognitive Neuroscience Seminar, as well as weekly neuroscience lectures with residents and PhD students, in the course led by Dr. Olusola Ajilore. In addition, Autumn regularly attended and presented at Dr. K. Luan Phan’s lab meetings and biweekly meetings of the Psychiatric Brain Research journal club. For training in fMRI, I met regularly with Dr. Phan to discuss fMRI data collection, processing, and analysis, as well as preparation of results for publications. Autumn's postdoctoral fellowship research resulted in co-authoring 15 peer-reviewed journal articles in top psychiatry and neuroscience journals, as well as many conference presentations. Moreover, this additional training time helped me to launch her career in clinical neuroscience and prepared her to independently develop and oversee studies of the development and treatment of mood disorders, integrating multiple neuroscience methods.
