Biography
Gabriel Hosein is currently a Postgraduate Research Associate in the Powers Lab. Currently, he is helping investigate the neuro-mechanisms behind auditory verbal hallucinations using neuroimaging techniques (fMRI and Wet/DryEEG), and computational psychophysics tasks.
Prior to his time in the Powers Lab, he received a B.A in neuroscience from Oberlin College. Gabriel’s research journey started in Dr. Leslie Kwakye’s Lab prior to their first year in undergrad, as a part of Oberlin College’s STRONG (Science & Technology Research Opportunities for a New Generation) program. Over his four years at Oberlin, he continued to do research in Dr. Kwakye’s lab, ultimately receiving and completing the Oberlin College Research Fellowship.
His research interests lie in sensory perception, neurodegeneration, psychology, and cognition. He aims to understand how cognitive processes, sensory perception, neurodegenerative, and neuro-inflammatory processes can interact and contribute to the development of different psychiatric disorders. He is passionate about how tools can be created, not only to identify these mechanisms, but to increase accessibility and quality of life for those experiencing distressing psychological issues.
In addition to his research, Gabriel enjoys helping people of all ages develop and cultivate their interest in STEM.
