Biography:

Hi, my name is Blanca Lizanne. Currently I’m in my sophomore year at Penn State, majoring in BMB with a minor in Microbiology and Spanish. Outside of school I like swimming and spending time with my friends. I also love traveling and learning about new cultures.

This summer, I will be conducting research at the University of Granada in Spain with Dr. Teresa Bajo studying how people use grammatical gender processing in dual pronouns. We will use three tasks to take a look at the process: eye tracking using pupillometry, category fluency and picture naming. I will be working with Cody Laudenslager, a fellow undergraduate student at Penn State.
