Megan G. Massa, PhD

– Assistant Teaching Professor –

I practice student-centered, feedback-driven critical pedagogy grounded in active learning that integrates neuroscience with queer and feminist theories. My current teaching interests involve the development of student-driven course design and assessment strategies.

My academic scholarship looks at ways to apply queer feminist theory to basic and preclinical neuroscience research in pursuit of more accurate & socially responsible science. I most recently gave a talk on the subject at University of West Georgia and will be part of a panel discussion at SBN 2024.
