Recommendation letter for Juan-Carlos Andaluz

Juan-Carlos Andaluz was a student in a course I co-taught at New York University in

Spring 2011 with my colleague Professor Bijan Pesaran, "Behavioral and Integrative

Neuroscience" (BINS). The-Behavioral and Integrative Neuroscience course covered

sensory and motor systems, perception, decision-making,learning and memory, attention,

,, and neural disorders. Juan-Carlos was a good student in BINS in terms of grades onI

exams. BINS is a challenging, competitive class and all the students were very good.

Juan-Carlos did well in his classwoik. He followed up on the lecture material with visits

to my office to reach better understanding of what we covered. He is a serious young man

and worked very hard in the BINS course.

I recommend him for the internship.

Sincerely,
