OverviewAI-generated summary
Stephanie M. Gardner's research encompasses neurobiology, focusing on synaptic plasticity and receptor mechanisms, as well as educational research in the biological sciences. Her work in neurobiology has investigated the role of AMPA receptor subunit composition in synaptic input, particularly within the mammalian cochlear nuclei. This has included studies on calcium-permeable AMPA receptor plasticity and its mediation by specific protein interactions, as well as computational modeling of auditory nerve fiber activity in rats. Gardner has also contributed to research on physiological responses in animal models, such as the effect of pneumoperitoneum on renal function in swine. In the realm of education, her scholarship explores methods for engaging students in authentic research experiences in introductory biology laboratory courses, correlating these approaches with gains in students' understanding of scientific research and critical thinking. She has also examined student practices in graph construction in biology.
