Jace Jones-Tabah
PhD student |
I completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Toronto in 2013 with a major in Pharmacology and a minor in Psychology. During my senior research project I worked on dopamine receptor signaling and its relevance to treating neuropsychiatric diseases and found I had an interest in pursuing research in the field. I worked for one year as a research assistant at the University of Toronto before moving to Montreal and beginning my graduate studies here at McGill. In September 2015 I joined as a Master’s student working on a collaborative project between Paul Clarke and Terry Hébert, and fast-tracked to the PhD program in April 2016. My project is focused on developing methods to measure the activity of G protein-coupled receptors in the brain of living animals, and to use these tools to both investigate drug actions and reveal how these receptors behave under physiological conditions.
