Emine Topcu

Always a student

The land I'm on: I would like to acknowledge that the land I am located on is the traditional unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishnaabeg people.

About me: I am a software developer who decided to study Neuroscience a few years ago. I got my honours degree in Neuroscience and Biology from Carleton University. Currently, I am doing my master's of science in Biology at uOttawa, doing computational modelling of spinal control of motor movements in zebrafish swimming.

I was very lucky to team up with very smart and ambitious classmates in Carleton. They became my friends and now partners on this website.

Favorite neuroscience book:

(Fiction) Left Neglected by Lisa Genova

(Non-fiction) The Tale of Dueling Neurosurgeons by Sam Kean

Fun fact: I am a part-time musician. I play guitar and do vocals/back vocals in Whispers In The Maze and Projekt Göthenburg.
