It is with great pleasure that we announce that Andrea Deschênes obtained the prestigious Joseph-Armand Bombardier’s postgraduate Canadian scholarship from the Council of Human Sciences Research (SSHRC). This 35,000$ per year scholarship supports students who obtained excellent results in their undergraduate and graduate studies in human sciences who also demonstrated an outstanding potential in research in hope to further develop their skills. In addition to being a member of LPVS-UQO, Andrea is co-directed by Hélène Forget, director of the Laboratory of Psychoneuroendocrinological Analysis of Stress and Health. In her research, Andrea uses psychophysical and social cognition methods to investigate the impact of moderate psychosocial stress on social judgments.
