Dr. Fremont received her undergraduate degree from the University of Chicago where she earned a Bachelor of Arts in Biology with specialization in Neuroscience while working in the lab of Dr. Melina Hale studying the development of hindbrain startle circuits in the zebrafish. She then completed her MD/PhD at Albert Einstein College of Medicine where she developed novel rodent models of genetic dystonias and examined how interactions between the cerebellum and basal ganglia may contribute to this devastating disorder in the laboratory of Dr. Kamran Khodakhah. During her work, she became interested in the overlap of movement disorders and psychiatric disorders and hopes to pursue research on whether similar neural mechanisms may contribute to both. She currently lives on the Upper East Side of Manhattan where she enjoys visiting nearby museums and auction houses.
