Nicole Fröhlich first came to McMaster as an undergraduate visiting researcher from Brazil.
The experience was so positive that after completing her degree, she returned to McMaster for her master’s degree in neuroscience.
“It’s amazing to be back,” she says.
Her master’s research is in finding blood-based biomarkers to better understand the neurobiological underpinnings of bipolar disorder.
“I want to be able to change lives through research.”
Fröhlich shares how finding a supportive community at McMaster — whether it was mentorship or practical help in choosing the right winter gear — is shaping her approach to research.
