Congratulations to Jasleen Grewal for being awarded the WorkSafe BC Research Training award! Find out more about Jasleen’s award-winning research below and join us in congratulating Jasleen on her stellar achievement!
Tell us a little bit about your lab! What type of research are you conducting?
I am a PhD student in the Collaborative Evidence: Developing Awareness and Research (CEDAR) Brain Injury lab. Studies at the CEDAR lab focus on hearing from people with lived experience, community organizations, and practitioners to facilitate improved awareness, resources, and quality of life for people with brain injury. My thesis focuses on investigating if novel rehabilitation approaches such as, virtual reality, can be used to improve daily function after brain injury.
What award did you win, and how will this help your research?
I received the WorkSafe BC Research Training award. This award provides salary support and research training funds to support my project investigating the use of virtual reality to improve daily function after brain injury.
What do you like to do outside of academia?
Outside of academia, I like to read, spend time with friends, family and my puppy and, spend my time outdoors exploring nature.
