I am very pleased to welcome Tara Nichols who joined the Baldwin Vision Lab as a graduate student in Fall 2025.

My research interests include binocular vision and stereopsis, especially in the context of understanding amblyopia in adults and children. Prior to joining the Baldwin Vision Lab at McGill I completed my undergraduate studies at McMaster University, receiving a Bachelor of Science in Biology and Psychology, Neuroscience & Behaviour. At McMaster I was able to gain valuable research experience working on multiple projects aimed at developing and testing more sensitive measures of binocular vision for patients with amblyopia. I am excited to further my training and experience in my graduate studies where I will be investigating different aspects and anomalies of stereoscopic vision in both normally sighted and amblyopic individuals. Outside of the lab I enjoy running, reading, and baking.
