Rosa Torres, M.A.I am a graduate student under joint supervision of Professor Karen Campbell and Professor Stephen Emrich. I completed my undergraduate degree in Biology for Health Sciences and Psychology at U of T. My main interest is studying the age-related changes in the efficiency of memory and attention, and how these changes may be reflected in neural mechanisms. Through my research, I hope to get a better understanding of healthy aging and potential interventions to increase the efficiency of cognitive processes, especially in old age.
Hannah Thomas, b.a.I am a graduate student in the Campbell Neurocognitive Aging lab. I am Mohawk (Haundenosaunee) from Six Nations of the Grand River. I completed my undergraduate thesis with Dr. Campbell here at Brock researching the development of associative memory in children. I am interested in how aging impacts the quality and content of episodic memories and how attention influences this relationship. Throughout my graduate career I hope to work on generating both representative and meaningful research on Indigenous aging and Elders.

Joseph Merante, B.A.I am a first-year master’s student starting in Dr. Campbell’s Neurocognitive Aging Lab. I completed my undergraduate degree in psychology and neuroscience at the University of Toronto. I am interested in studying memory using naturalistic stimuli such as movies as well as exploring how prior knowledge and attention can modulate our memory of events both positively and adversely. Through this work I hope to elucidate potential interventions emphasizing prior knowledge to stave off cognitive impairment with age.
Eryka Jones, B.A.I am a first-year master's student in the Campbell Neurocognitive Aging Lab. I completed my undergraduate degree in psychology at Algoma University in Sault Ste. Marie. I am interested in how aging impacts our attention and memory, specifically looking at the changes in both behaviour and at the neural level. Through my research, I hope to further our understanding of the impacts of aging and how to help people adapt to these changes.

Annie NguyenI’m Annie, a Psychology graduate from Brock University. I’m currently taking a gap year and planning to apply for grad school this fall. I’m interested in studying how people acquire, store, and process information. Outside of academics, I’ve recently been exploring the art of making the perfect cup of matcha.
Matthew IvanoffI am a second-year undergraduate neuroscience student and a graduate electrical engineer who is passionate about the future of brain computer interfaces. Some of my personal projects have included building a simple EEG system and an EMG controlled robotic arm. My aim is to learn more about the function and underlying architecture of the brain so as to one day contribute new ideas to this exciting and evolving field. In this pursuit I have become particularly interested in the mechanisms behind memory and am excited to learn more in the lab and build on my research skills.

Julia celettiI am a graduate of the Neurobiology stream of Neuroscience at Brock University with a minor in Women’s and Gender Studies. I am currently completing an online master’s degree in applied Neuroscience at King’s College London. Outside of my studies, I am a music instructor at the Ontario Conservatory of Music and at Yellow Door Theatre company. I am interested in investigating the neural mechanisms underlying age-related cognitive changes, and I am grateful to contribute to the lab and to have the opportunity to work with so many amazing people.

Alyssa De jesusMy name is Alyssa, and I am a fourth-year psychology student minoring in sociology. My goal is to attend Grad school after my undergrad to pursue a career in child psychology. I already been volunteering in Dr. Campbell's lab for two years now, and I cannot wait to see what new experiences this year brings and to expand my knowledge on topics like attention, memory, and age differentiation!
