Melissa Gonzalez Soto
PhD Student
I am a PhD international student in the Human Health and Nutritional Sciences program at the University of Guelph. My research project focuses on the dietary regulation of the enzymes involved in the endogenous synthesis of omega-3. As a volunteer in the S2BN Guelph chapter, I look forward to organizing events that facilitate communication between students and the industry. I am excited to meet other graduate students with similar interests to mine, as well as industry professionals.
Social Outreach Coordinator
Bridget Coyle-Asbil
PhD Student
I am a PhD student in the department of Human Health and Nutritional Sciences at the University of Guelph. My research explores the impact of ovarian and pancreatic cancer on heart function. As part of S2BN, I look forward to assisting fellow graduate students in developing important connections with industry professionals as well as broadening their understanding of diverse career paths in industry!
Communications Director
Nicole Notaro
MSc Student
I am an MSc. student in the Human Health and Nutritional Sciences program at the University of Guelph. My research investigates the hormonal regulation of fat use in muscle, and how this process becomes disrupted with prolonged bouts of sedentary behaviour. During my time with S2BN, I hope to help coordinate events that connect graduate students to skill-building and networking opportunities that will allow them to suceed in both academic and professional roles! I am looking forward to developing my own skills through these events, as well as connecting with industry professionals and fellow graduate students!
Sponsorship Director
Anna Kupraty
MSc Student
As a Master’s student in the Department of Human Health and Nutritional Sciences at the University of Guelph, my research focuses on mitochondrial function within adipose tissue, with an emphasis on the influence of exercise. Through my involvement with S2BN, I am excited to support fellow graduate students in forging valuable industry connections while also broadening my own perspective on diverse career trajectories within the field.
