  mentoring_philosophy: |
    My mentoring philosophy revolves around empowering undergraduate students to excel in their project work through a combination of ownership, accountability, shared experience, and interactive learning. I believe in fostering an environment that nurtures their growth and encourages independent thinking.
    I emphasize giving mentees ownership of their work by involving them in project decisions, from goal setting to execution. This not only bolsters their confidence but also instills a sense of responsibility for their outcomes. I promote accountability by setting clear expectations and milestones, enabling them to track their progress and take pride in their achievements.
    Drawing from my own experience, I share stories of challenges and successes, illustrating the real-world applications of their efforts. This bridges the gap between theory and practice, enhancing their understanding and motivation. I also encourage open dialogue, where questions and ideas are welcomed, creating an interactive platform for collaborative learning.
    I understand that each student is unique, with varying skills and aspirations. To accommodate this, I tailor my guidance, offering guidance that aligns with their interests and goals. I provide resources, recommend reading materials, and suggest relevant workshops, fostering holistic development.
    In conclusion, my approach to mentoring undergraduates centers on nurturing their autonomy, cultivating responsibility, leveraging shared experiences, and fostering an interactive learning ecosystem. By doing so, I aim to not only support their immediate project objectives but also to equip them with lifelong skills for success.

  overall_research_project_description: |-
    Meta-analysis is a quantitative research design that synthesizes results from multiple studies of a particular topic, and analyses the statistical significance of these compiled results to estimate a standardized effect size. In this study, we are examining the differences between people with schizophrenia and healthy controls in regard to spatial navigation skills.
     
    Spatial navigation is a conglomeration of skills that are used to orient and navigate in daily life. Our previous research has shown that spatial navigation performance is an indicator of Alzheimer’s Disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment. We are investigating schizophrenia now to see if spatial navigation impairments are dementia specific. 
     
    In this project, you will learn about and become familiarized with scientific literature, data extraction, and the nature of systematic research.
