Short Bio:

From 2013 to 2021, Davis Joseph received 18 honors, awards, and distinctions from various Canadian institutions for his academic performance and service to his community. These institutions include the "Collège Notre-Dame," "Collège Jean-de-Brébeuf" (where he received a scholarship of excellence and graduated with a diploma in Health Sciences), the Montreal Geriatric Institution (for his hospital service), the Department of Oncology of the Jewish General Hospital (where he was selected as a student observer), the University of Montreal and the University of Waterloo.

Davis Joseph has achieved success in every field he has participated in. In fact, through his rigorous academic discipline, Davis has distinguished himself in all the educational fields he has studied, receiving merits and distinctions in French, English (twice), Mathematics (twice), natural and Social Sciences (twice), as well as a merit award for his academic results in all fields. He was also acknowledged for his regular contributions to his music department and to Expo- Sciences Hydro-Québec. He was elected class representative in his first year of University. He was a member of the executive council of his student association at the faculty of medicine at the University of Montreal.

His passion for Medical research led him to enroll in Biochemistry. He obtained a bachelor's degree at Concordia University in 2023 and enrolled at McGill University to conduct fundamental research on the translational control of proteins. During his study at McGill, he discovered the cause and the fundamental mechanism of 4E-BP2 deamidation in the nervous system, a problem that the experts in the field could not solve for 20 years. Davis Joseph's discovery paves the way to developing effective treatments against neurodegenerative diseases.

Davis Joseph regularly volunteers at various events. He is dedicated to serving his community and helping whenever possible. His positive attitude and determination make him an excellent student body representative in whatever event he signs up for.

Davis Joseph enjoys playing piano, Jazz, the bassoon, swimming, and basketball.
