She began her undergraduate degree in Engineering and serendipitously found her love for psychology after taking her first introductory psychology course. As she followed that passion for psychology, she trained under Dr. Gerald Giesbrecht at the Developmental Psychobiology Lab for two years. During that time, her thesis focused on the gut microbiome and how that relates to prenatal depression and infant temperament. At the Behavioural Medicine lab, Stuti is primarily involved in the Living Well With Psoriatic Arthritis trial. Along with psychology, she is passionate about studying Sanskrit and making gouache paintings. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6481061abd7d257f801c15fe/23bae344-0882-4590-988b-423eb39b8954/avatar-3814049_1280.jpg Our Team - Teleah Cowper Honours Student https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6481061abd7d257f801c15fe/4eddd9e7-ca10-4c6a-ac20-c782ff6191c7/cb-41+copy.jpg Our Team - Braiden Valdarchi Research Administrator Braiden recently graduated from the University of Calgary's BSc psychology program (First Class Honours). He discovered he was deeply interested in how psychology relates to health and wellness after taking several courses taught by Dr. Campbell and his graduate students. His research interests include how chronic illness and pain can be managed using methods rooted in biopsychosocial frameworks. Braiden joined the Behavioural Medicine Lab in 2022, where he now works part-time as a research administrator. He is currently training new research staff, assisting with grant applications, and overseeing all research within the lab. Braiden also enjoys curling, climbing, photography, and gardening in his free time.
