Rebekah Gelpí
Data Team
I am a cognitive scientist and PhD student at the University of Toronto studying computational models of social learning, supervised by Dr. Daphna Buchsbaum and Dr. Wil Cunningham. Previously, I completed my Bachelor of Arts in Cognitive Science at Swarthmore College in 2017. Throughout my academic career, I have been fortunate to mentor several undergraduate students navigating their way through the hidden curriculum of graduate school applications and foster their passion for learning. After learning about the mission of Científico Latino to foster a more equitable and diverse culture in academia in the sciences, I was motivated to get involved and first participated as a mentor for GSMI in 2021. Now, as a member of GSEC’s Data Team, I hope to use my quantitative skills to contribute to the mission of providing mentorship and resources to current and future scientists from underrepresented and marginalized backgrounds.
