The Math Lab Socials team aims to share all of the lab’s knowledge with everyone! Started by Taeko, the team has grown to include many wonderful members who all strive to share our research and give everyone a behind-the-scenes glimpse at what it means to be part of the Math Lab. We work on creating educational quizzes and behind-the-scenes posts about our research, sharing hidden curriculum tips, simplifying our published research papers, and much more for Instagram, Twitter, and the Math Lab website!

Introducing the Math Lab Socials Team


Taeko Bourque 


Taeko is passionate about knowledge mobilization and, having previously worked as a freelance artist, enjoys creating graphics to help simplify complex information and make it more accessible for all. As the first member of her family to attend graduate school, she believes in the importance of asking questions, sharing knowledge, and removing the hidden curriculum barriers. She works to promote equity, diversity, and inclusion and hopes that the creation of the Socials Team will help make the lab’s research and resources available to all. Taeko works on all aspects of the Socials’ projects, ranging from content creation, visuals, website design, and supervision.

She first joined the Socials Team to bring a Disability Studies lens (her minor) about the barriers surrounding accessing research. Her goal in each project is to tie her passion for Cognitive Science and Disability Studies together. She works on creating content, visuals, and posting each week. Her goal is to share the amazing knowledge produced from the lab to a wide audience.
