Mentees and Alumni

Mentees

The Brain Stimulation and Neurorehabilitation Laboratory is committed to mentoring physician–scientists, trainees, and early-career investigators interested in neuromodulation, neurorehabilitation, and cerebrovascular research. Mentees are actively involved in all stages of research, including study design, data acquisition, analysis, and dissemination, and benefit from close mentorship, interdisciplinary collaboration, and exposure to both mechanistic and clinical research environments. Through this training model, the laboratory supports the development of future leaders in translational neuroscience and rehabilitation science. 

Cameron D. Owens

Cameron D. Owens, MD, PhD
Physician-Scientist Mentee Neurovascular Physiology and Cerebrovascular Disease

Dr. Cameron D. Owens’ work focuses on neurovascular and cerebral hemodynamic mechanisms that contribute to cognitive impairment in age-related diseases, particularly in asymptomatic carotid artery stenosis and cerebrovascular disease. His research integrates multimodal physiological approaches including EEG, fNIRS, and transcranial Doppler alongside ex vivo plasma-based biomarkers to advance mechanistic understanding of brain–vascular dynamics.

Alumni

The Brain Stimulation and Neurorehabilitation Laboratory is committed to training the next generation of scientists and clinicians. Our alumni have gone on to distinguished careers in academia, medicine, and industry around the world. They contribute to an international network of collaborators and leaders in neuromodulation and neurorehabilitation. Their achievements reflect the lab’s commitment to mentorship, career development, and the translation of research into clinical and academic impact.

Laura Boada Robayo

Laura Boada Robayo, MD
Former Visiting Scholar (2024–2025)

During her time at the Brain Stimulation and Neurorehabilitation Laboratory, Dr. Boada Robayo focused on developing neuromodulation protocols for cognitive rehabilitation in post-stroke patients. She contributed to multimodal studies integrating EEG and fNIRS.
