Deborah Bauer

Associate Teaching Professor in Neuroscience

Neuroscientist with an interest in cells, molecules, and active learning.

I am excited to share my passion for neuroscience with students. My educational background is in molecular neuroscience, with a focus on glutamate transporters. I teach across the curriculum including: Introduction to Neuroscience: From Neurons to Clinic (101), Intermediate Neuroscience I (201), Intermediate Neuroscience II (202), Excitation, Plasticity, and Disease (305) with Laboratory, and Advanced Topics in Neuroscience: Neuropharmacology (332). I love the interactive nature of teaching and am excited to foster discussions about complex topics in neuroscience.

Outside of neuroscience I enjoy ultimate frisbee, hiking, visual art, and board games.
