Polina is a PhD student in the Psychological Science stream of the graduate program. She is co-supervised by Behrang Keshavarz (Multisensory Integration in Virtual Environments Lab at the KITE Research Institute, University Health Network, Toronto) and Julia Spaniol. Polina completed her undergraduate work at Carleton University, where she investigated how changes in cognitive load affect performance and neural activity during virtual flight simulation. Polina investigates EEG correlates of perceived self-motion in virtual environments, and how they differ in younger and older adults.
