July 2026 | Summer Research Spotlight Juliana Bellini

Congratulations to Juliana Bellini (MU-ARTSS) on successfully completing her summer research internship in the LAMP Lab! Over the course of June and July, Juliana completed her first research experience by carrying out an ambitious EEG and behavioral study examining self-reported polysubstance use and its relationship to the neural correlates of reward cue learning. From collecting human participant data to analyzing results, identifying meaningful patterns, and ultimately presenting her work in the research poster “An Exploration of Self-Reported Polysubstance Use on Neural Correlates in Reward Cue Learning” at the 2026 Summer Undergraduate Research and Creative Achievements Forum, Juliana made remarkable progress in a short time. We’re proud of everything she accomplished this summer and look forward to seeing where her research journey takes her next. Great job, Juliana!
