Heike joined the Bagot lab in Fall 2020 as a PhD student in the Integrated Program in Neuroscience. She will investigate the relationship between chronic stress and learning using behavioral, genetic, and transcriptional data. In her free time, Heike can be found doing yoga, climbing and knitting socks to survive the cold Montreal winter. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0a7df83c59920001a857d6/84c33dd0-7aab-43f5-9ef9-2f0c1f97c949/L1007646+copy.JPG Research Team - Make it stand out Serena Wu | PhD Candidate Serena graduated from Columbia university in 2020 with a BA in Neuroscience. During her time in New York, she worked with Dr. Christoph Anacker studying the impacts of early life stress on the development of psychiatric diseases. Serena joined the Bagot lab in the fall of 2021 as a Master’s student in the Integrated Program in Neuroscience. She will use in vivo single photon calcium imaging to study the role of a novel genetic regulator of resilience and susceptibility in the prefrontal cortex. Outside of the lab, you can find Serena at the archery range or the dance studio. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0a7df83c59920001a857d6/169dba0c-92c6-47b7-b5ff-8f3358c323e6/img_0621_720.jpg Research Team - Make it stand out Dr. Zahra Rostami | PhD Student Zahra received her MD from Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences (SBMU). During medical school, she investigated the effects of multisensory integration and causality perception on neurodegenerative disorders in human models under the supervision of Dr. Mehri Salari (SBMU) and Dr. Maryam Vaziri Pashkam (University of Delaware). With a strong interest in neurology and psychiatry, Zahra joined the PhD program to focus on translational studies of reward learning strategies and their underlying neural circuitry. Her research aims to understand how chronic stress disrupts these circuits, leading to anhedonia-like symptoms, and to bridge basic science discoveries with clinical applications. Outside the lab, she enjoys painting, swimming, and playing tennis. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5d0a7df83c59920001a857d6/c05b5a66-90ef-4ddc-8dbd-5ffdf81caa4b/1000008655_720.jpg Research Team - Make it stand out Peter Vitaro | MSc Student Peter Vitaro earned a B.A. & Sc. in Cognitive Science from McGill University in 2024, where he cultivated an interdisciplinary interest in brain and behavior.
