Dr. Vera Lucci
Department of Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology

Vera is a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology (BPK). Her work examines the role of the autonomic nervous system in syncope (fainting). Vera moved to BC in 2016 to her pursue graduate studies at SFU. During her graduate studies she served as President of BPK Graduate Caucus and held several service roles both within the university and her field of research. These roles have equipped to serve her fellow postdoctoral-association as VP Policy. Outside of research, Vera can often be found in an independent bookstore, rock climbing, or skiing.

Dr. Padmapriya Muralidharan
Department of Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology

Priya Muralidharan is a postdoctoral fellow in the Department of Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology studying ion channel biophysics using induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes with Prof Thomas Claydon. She pursued her Ph.D. at the University of Western Australia and moved to Memphis, USA for her first postdoc, and then moved to Canada for her second postdoc in November 2019. Having lived in different countries she definitely can appreciate the challenges of any international postdoctoral-association. She joined the SFU-Postdoctoral association to meet, help and represent fellow postdoctoral-association at the Canadian Association of Postdoctoral Scholars.
