Jerry(Zongren) Zhang; Undergraduate research assistant; Email: zongren@ucsb.edu I’m a junior physics student at UCSB. I build apparatus and analyze data for chronic pain and neuroscience studies. I enjoy working with 3-D printers, python, and inspiring researchers. Outside of the lab and classroom I enjoy playing piano and Minecraft.

Hi, I’m Javier J. Reveles, the Hansma Lab Manager and Chronic Pain Science Study Subject Coordinator. I bring with me extensive experience in neurotherapy, having worked in Goleta at Medtronic PS Medical (now Medtronic PLC), Restorative Brain Therapies in Irvine. In my previous roles, I earned a patent as a co-inventor and served as a lab technologist, lab lead supervisor, and core R&D support team member for the hydrocephalus Strata valve product line. I’m now thrilled to be part of the neuroscience team in the physics department at UCSB. Every day, I strive to bring this same enthusiasm to my work with Professor Paul Hansma and our team of UC students in the Hansma Physics Research Lab.
