My name is Andreja and I am a 4th year Psychology student at York University in Toronto, Ontario. The CCDP Professional Development Award gave me the opportunity to attend a computational neuroscience summer school, as well as the chance to attend a leading visual sciences conference. Attending the conference gave me the opportunity to network with other neuroscientists from around the world, and the summer school taught me the skills I need to be competitive in my career. I am deeply grateful to the Canadian Council of Psychology Departments for facilitating my participation at these incredible events.
I received the Professional Development award during the last year of my undergraduate degree. I am now a first-year MA student studying at the University of Waterloo. I've used the award to fund (a) my attendance at an upcoming virtual research conference and (b) several books on the topic of my MA thesis.
Currently a PhD Candidate in the Applied Social Psychology program at the University of Saskatchewan under the supervision of Dr. Mark Olver. Her research tends to focus on forensic topics including perceptions of sexual violence, multiple perpetrator sexual offences, risk assessment, children under 12 with concerning sexual behaviour, zoophilia and bestiality, and populations with disabilities. Alexandra used the CCDP Professional Development Award to attend the 39th Annual Research and Treatment Conference for the Association for the Treatment of Sexual Abusers where she shared research on the experiences of individuals who identify as Involuntarily Celibate or "incels."
