Rose is interested in the neuronal circuits that drive auditory learning behaviors. Currently, she is using in vivo electrophysiology techniques to study subcortical contributions to auditory cortical plasticity during perceptual learning under the guidance of Dr. Melissa Caras. Prior to joining the Neuroscience and Cognitive Science PhD program at UMD, she worked as a research technician at UNC. She received a B.S. in Biology and a minor in Linguistics at Wake Forest University.
