Biography

Before entering the PhD program at the IHPST, I completed my BSc in Biochemistry and MA in History at the University of Windsor. My area of interest is the history of psychiatry, with a focus on biological psychiatry and psychopharmacology. I am particularly interested pharmaceutical and neurochemical research, and how experimental work in these areas generated therapeutic interventions in psychiatry during the first half of the twentieth century.
