不良研究所

I am a research associate in the Cognitive Neuroscience Unit and was previously a PhD student there. Having been at the Neuro for several years, I am naturally very invested in making it a fair and safe place for all. In addition, as a woman of colour living in western, predominantly white countries, I have always felt the effects of lack of representation and am well aware of issues of discrimination and lack of opportunity that are still very much present in our society. I would be very glad for any opportunity to play a small part to try and change that and am therefore very excited to join this committee!

I join the Neuro EDI committee because I believe in its mission and vision. I am honored to be a member of the MUHC community for the past 30 years and the last 12 years as the nurse manager of the intensive care unit at the Neuro. Unlike in my native country, here in North America, I am seen as a person that belongs to what is called the visible minority group or ethnic group. I never heard of these group categories before I came to Canada. These group categories did not stop me from realizing my personal life and professional life dreams. I feel privilege because the MUHC and the Neuro have always accompanied me in my career paths and successes. I am very curious to know if every member of the Neuro community would say the same about their career path. Does everyone believe s/he is being treated equal? Does everyone鈥檚 voices being heard?听 I want to be an example for the visible minority at the Neuro. I join the Neuro EDI committee because I want the committee to succeed in its mission and vision.
