Dr. Yasaman Soudagar

Dr. Yasaman Soudagar completed her PhD in the field of experimental quantum optics at École Polytechnique of Montreal and the University of Toronto, under supervision of Dr. Aephrain Steinberg. She then worked at Attodyne (now Light Matter Interaction after a successful exit) as an industrial postdoc, designing the optical delivery of a surgical laser. In 2014 she had the idea for multi-region brain imaging for understanding the brain. She did a few months postdoc at a neuroscience lab and started her company Neurescence. Neurescence went through a high profile acquisition by Bruker last November. The team continues their effort to help brain research in Toronto, Canada.
