The Space Exploration Conference (SPEX2022) brought together passionate students and professionals in an interdisciplinary, inspirational, hands-on event at Concordia University in Montreal, Canada. Hosted by Space Health Concordia and The Mars Society of Canada, participants and attendees learned about emerging technologies and opportunities both within and beyond Canada in the realm of space exploration.Activities included:• Presentations from Canadian space industry leaders• Opportunities for students to showcase their work• Hands-on workshops on rocket propulsion, health technologies, robotics, and more• Networking opportunities with other emerging space leaders and employers

Accumulated more than a 850 hours of private and group tutoring for College and University students in the fields of Calculus, Algebra, Physics, French, Engineering, Mechanical Drawing, Writing Skills, and more!

Duration: Sep 2021- Jan 2022 I have had the opportunity to complete a clinical research internship as part of the first of its kind study in Canada with the McGill Health Institute and the Canadian Space Agency, to study the effects of inactivity on astronauts and the elderly, where I had the privilege to assist the doctors in performing biopsies, Brain and Heart MRIs and a multitude of physiological and psychological tests. “A study using bed-rest as an analog to microgravity will provide data for eight Canadian research projectsThe Centre for Innovative Medicine (CIM) of the Research Institute of the McGill University Health Centre (RI-MUHC) will soon host The Health Impacts of Inactivity Study - the first of its kind in Canada. Funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research, in partnership with the Canadian Frailty Network and the Canadian Space Agency and set to start next spring, the study will integrate eight research projects looking at the effects of inactivity on the human body and the effectiveness of a countermeasure (physical exercise). The outcomes of this integrated research protocol will inform solutions for older adults and for astronauts on space missions. As their body doesn’t have to work against gravity, astronauts in space experience physical symptoms similar to accelerated aging and health problems common in sedentary populations.”
