  • M.Sc. Student, Department of Physiology, McGill.

  • B.Sc. in Biology and Computer Science, McGill.

  • Between musical theater, computer science and the brain - I wasn’t able to chose so I will focus on one of their intersections: the study of audiovisual space and object perception.

  • I was born and raised in Belgium. However half of my family lives in Israel and I have spent most of my summers there. Today, the place I truly call home is definitely Montreal.

  • B.A. in Psychology with double minors in Behavioral Science and Science for Art Students, McGill

  • As someone who enjoys playing the piano, I am curious to explore the ways cognitive processes impact musical expression and attentional shifts. My research interests lie at the intersection of psychology, music, and cognitive science.

  • I was born in Shanghai, China, where I spent the first 18 years of my life. After completing high school, I relocated to Montreal to pursue my studies at McGill University. I really enjoy the lovely summer in Montreal!


Alex Zhao

  • B. Sc student, Neuroscience program, McGill

  • My research interests lie in computational neuroscience, as I believe that computational models have the power to capture the brain’s inner workings. In my free time I enjoy reading and solo traveling.


Evan Jiang

  • B. Sc student, Major Computer Science and Biology, Mcgill

  • I initially started in the life science program but developed a strong interest in programming, which led me to combine these interests by switching to a major in computer science and biology. My research interests now lie in computational biology, with a particular focus on neurology.


Isidore Victorri

  • B.Sc. Student in Physiology and Physics, McGill.

  • With a bachelor’s program focused on research, I’m eager to dive into the field of auditory attention.

  • Originally from Saint-Pierre-et-Miquelon, a small French overseas territory, now experiencing life in a big city for the first time while studying in Montréal.


Maya Aderka

  • M.Sc. Student, Department of Physiology, McGill.

  • B.Sc. in Psychology and Computer Science with an emphasis on Neuroscience, Tel Aviv University, Tel Aviv, Israel.

  • During mt B.Sc, I worked as a research assistant in Prof. Nitzan Censor lab, which studies memory and learning. I assisted in conducting behavioral studies, as well as studies involving EEG, fMRI and TMS.

  • In the final year of my B.Sc, I joined Prof. Yuval Nir’s sleep lab to help with an initiative to create SleepEEGpy, a platform to pre-process and analyse sleep EEG data.

Sabrina Du

  • B. Sc. Student, Honours Neuroscience, McGill.

  • Born and raised in Montreal, I grew up alongside this city’s rise as an AI hub and developed a keen interest in brain-inspired computational architectures.

  • How does short-term perceptual memory guide decisions? Can we replicate this memory system in artificial networks? These questions (and more) are ones I am excited to explore.

  • In my free time, you can find me listening to a podcast, hiking, or attempting to sew.
