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.

Lamis El-Sabaa, B.A.I am a graduate student in the Campbell Neurocognitive Aging Lab. I completed my undergraduate degree in Behaviour, Cognition and Neuroscience at the University of Windsor. I am interested in utilizing electroencephalography (EEG) to investigate how age-related differences in attentional control impact memory performance. Moreover, I hope to examine the influence of everyday media multitasking on this relationship.

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.

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.

Sara PalewiczHonours Thesis Student
I am a fourth year Honours Psychology student completing my thesis in Dr. Campbell’s lab. I was previously a research assistant in the lab, where I mainly assisted Lamis with her Master’s project. I really enjoyed working with Lamis, but I am now very excited to be taking on my own thesis project that will be about learning that occurs during different attentional states. I am also looking forward to further gaining hands-on research experience and continuing to explore my research interests. It has been awesome being part of such a great team, and I am excited to continue working with my peers on this new experience.

Elora IvesHonours Thesis Student
I am in my final year of my honours neuropsychology undergraduate program completing my thesis in Dr. Campbell’s lab. I have always been fascinated by neuroscience and the psychology of the aging brain. Throughout my undergrad, I have worked with adults with brain injury, dual diagnosis and neurodegenerative disease through the Brock co-op program. I look forward to bringing my experiences both from co-op and my thesis to my Masters in the future.

Caitlyn mcbrideIndependent Project Student
I am a fourth-year Honours Psychology student here at Brock University. I joined Dr. Campbell’s lab due to my interest in the natural process of aging and its effects on one's cognitive abilities. My personal experience working with older adults also helped kickstart my interest in this field. I hope to use this valuable research experience in the future when I apply for my Masters. I’m incredibly grateful for this opportunity and look forward to whatever the future brings.

Renata Acosta perezIndependent Project Student
I am an Honours Psychology student at Brock University. I am doing an independent study project under the supervision of Dr. Campbell in the Neurocognitive Aging Lab. After taking her Human Memory course in my third year, I knew I wanted to pursue this project with Dr. Campbell. Ever since then, I have been extremely passionate about the way we encode, store, and retrieve memories, and the factors that contribute to errors in these processes. During my independent study, I hope to learn more about memory failures and how to prevent them. I am looking forward to gaining research experience and beginning my journey in the field.

Sami Jo PhillipsI am a fourth year Honours Psychology student at Brock University. I joined Dr. Campbell's lab last year to gain experience in cognitive research and expand my knowledge about how aging affects memory. I hope to use this incredible experience in the future when applying to master's programs. Broadly speaking, my research interests relate to memory, trauma, and community psychology. I am very grateful to be a part of this amazing team and I'm looking forward to everything the future has in store!

Emily Haynes |
I am a third-year undergraduate student pursuing an honours degree in Neurobiology at Brock. I am grateful to be part of both Dr. Campbell's lab and Dr. Emrich's VCN lab, assisting PhD student Rosa with her EEG studies. I really enjoy being involved in this inspiring atmosphere! I believe that working as a research assistant is an essential first step in supporting my curiosity and gaining deeper insight into the field of neuroscientific research. I am excited to apply what I learn in the lab towards my future academic endeavors, particularly in exploring my interest of how experience affects information processing and behavior.
Oforiwaa baduI am a recent graduate from Brock University with a bachelor’s degree in psychology Co-op option (Honours) and a minor in Media studies. I am interested in pursuing research related to the psychology of work environments and individuals within those settings. Dr. Campbell’s lab is providing an opportunity to learn essential research skills I hope to apply in my future master's studies.

I am a passionate third-year Honours Psychology student in the research stream at Brock University. I am currently volunteering as a research assistant in Dr. Campbell’s Neurocognitive Aging Lab with an interest in neurocognition across lifespan development. I hope to contribute to the impactful research conducted in the lab and gain hands-on experience in a successful research setting as I prepare to apply for my Master’s. My primary research interest centres around investigating individual differences in cognitive development across the lifespan.
Diana romanyukI am a third-year undergraduate Honours Forensic Psychology and Criminal Justice student at Brock University. I joined Dr. Campbell's lab to further my academics by applying my course-based knowledge into a more hands-on, practical setting. I'm using this experience to help narrow down post-graduate pathways as well as acquire valuable skills for a future career in psychology. Over the course of my studies, I've become increasingly interested in human behaviour across the lifespan, individual differences affecting psychopathy, and cognitive processes that influence attention and memory.
