Stephanie Lloyd is a Professor and Director of Undergraduate Studies in the Department of Anthropology at Université Laval's Faculty of Social Sciences. She is affiliated with the Cervo research center, the McGill Group for Suicide Studies (MGSS), the Centre Nutrition, santé et société (NUTRISS), and the Institut sur la nutrition et les aliments fonctionnels (INAF). Her research spans medical anthropology, biosocial studies, and critical disability frameworks through two primary axes. The first investigates neuroepigenetics and suicide risk, analyzing how childhood adversity impacts suicide through social environment integration and temporal models. This work critically compares scientific risk frameworks with lived experiences of suicidal individuals and bereaved families. The second axis reimagines cochlear implant research by centering deaf people's experiential knowledge to develop critical biosocial understandings of sensory technologies. Her interdisciplinary approach bridges anthropology of psychiatry, science and technology studies, and disability justice perspectives. Recent publications (2020-2025) reveal consistent thematic evolution across suicide research and neurotechnology studies. Her work progressively integrates epigenetic reversibility concepts with trauma narratives while challenging biomedical paradigms in deafness research. Key trends include diffractive methodologies for Global South trauma contexts, critiques of bionic metaphors in implant technologies, and reconceptualizing life trajectories through homeorhesis frameworks. This output demonstrates rigorous interdisciplinary synthesis where molecular neuroscience intersects with lived experience narratives. Lloyd actively collaborates with the McGill Group for Suicide Studies (MGSS), a leading international suicide prevention research consortium. She also contributes to NUTRISS and INAF centers, which investigate nutrition-mental health connections and functional foods. These affiliations enable her biosocial research to bridge laboratory science with community-centered health interventions through institutional partnerships in Quebec's neuroscience ecosystem.

Preston P. Thakral is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Smith College, where he teaches courses in memory, cognitive neuroscience, and research methods. He serves as the Principal Investigator of the Neuroscience of Memory and Flexible Cognition Laboratory, conducting cutting-edge research on the neural mechanisms underlying episodic memory and its relationship to other cognitive processes. Dr. Thakral earned his Ph.D. in psychology and neuroscience from Boston College, where he also completed his M.A. and B.A. His academic journey included postdoctoral fellowships at Harvard University (working with Dr. Daniel Schacter) and the University of Texas at Dallas (working with Dr. Michael Rugg), followed by a position as Director of the Human Neuroscience Laboratory at Boston College before joining Smith College. His research program takes an adaptive perspective on episodic memory, investigating how the constructive nature of memory that makes it prone to error also serves beneficial roles in flexible cognition. His work demonstrates that memory processes involved in remembering past events are also engaged in helpful ways during imagination, creative thinking, and problem solving. This perspective challenges traditional views of memory errors as purely maladaptive, instead framing them as byproducts of a flexible system that supports broader cognitive functions. Dr. Thakral's publications reveal a consistent research trajectory examining the links between memory distortion and creative cognition, with recent work focusing on neural mechanisms using fMRI meta-analyses and examining how memory processes contribute to everyday problem solving. His research employs a multi-method approach including functional neuroimaging, transcranial magnetic stimulation, and event-related potentials to build comprehensive models of memory function. As a mentor and educator, Dr. Thakral guides undergraduate research in his laboratory while teaching foundational courses in psychology. His research has been supported by National Institutes of Health funding, including grants from the National Institute of Mental Health and National Institute on Aging. The Neuroscience of Memory and Flexible Cognition Laboratory employs three primary cognitive neuroscience techniques: fMRI for spatial resolution, ERPs for temporal resolution, and TMS for causal manipulation. This multi-method approach allows the lab to create comprehensive models of episodic memory function that account for insights from both correlational and manipulative methods, providing convergent evidence for theories of memory function.
