I live with anxiety and depression, so my work is really meaningful to me. Through my work I hope to leave things in a better way than I found them. My role in the team is to ensure that the rest of the team has what they need in order to get their work done, grow, and thrive. I get my deepest sense of fulfillment from mentoring, helping people to figure out who they are and what THEY want to contribute. I am a first generation academic who identifies as pan and agender. I enjoy food (eating, cooking, gathering), the outdoors (hiking, diving, biking, snowboarding), and high intensity group exercise classes &#8211; especially barbells, spending time with my partner and cats, and reading (esp. Feminist sci-fi\/speculative fiction).<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fndry-slideout-block\" data-fndry-js=\"slideout-block\">\n    <a  data-fndry-js=\"slideout-content\" href=\"#fndry-block-64c8263d1285a\" type=\"button\" class=\"fndry-slideout-block__slideout-content\" aria-controls=\"fndry-block-64c8263d1285a\">\n        <div\n\t         class=\"fndry-slideout-block__img-container\"        >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bcchr.ca\/tgrc\/files\/2025\/03\/rolanbatallones.jpeg\" class=\"fndry-slideout-block__img\" style=\"--slideout-img-zoom:1.25\" \/>        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"fndry-slideout-block__content\">\n            <div  class=\"fndry-slideout-block__heading-wrap\">\n                <div  class=\"fndry-slideout-block__heading-wrap-container fndry-d--flex fndry-flex--row\" style=\"--slideout-heading-gap:5px\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"fndry-slideout-block__heading fndry-text-h3SectionHeadline26\">Rolan Batallones<\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t                <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t                        <span class=\"fndry-slideout-toggle\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t            <\/div>\n            <div  class=\"fndry-slideout-block__excerpt-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"fndry-slideout-block__excerpt fndry-text-slideoutExcerpt\">Research Coordinator<\/p>            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/a>\n    <div id=\"fndry-block-64c8263d1285a\"\n         class=\"fndry-slideout-block__slideout-hidden fndry-collapse--hidden\"\n         data-fndry-js=\"slideout-hidden\">\n        <div class=\"fndry-slideout-block__content-hidden\">\n\t\t\t                <button data-fndry-js=\"slideout-close-btn\"\n                        class=\"fndry-slideout-block__close-btn\"\n                        aria-label=\"Close\"\n                        aria-controls=\"fndry-block-64c8263d1285a\">\n                <\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div  class=\"fndry-container fndry-responsive-bg fndry-pt--3 fndry-pb--2 fndry-pr--4 fndry-pl--4 fndry-pr--md-3 fndry-pl--md-3 fndry-pr--sm-2 fndry-pl--sm-2\" style=\"border-radius:5px;--fndry-bg:var(--fndry-color-light)\">\n\t<div class=\"fndry-row fndry-row--gutter fndry-align--start fndry-justify--between\">\n\t<div  class=\"fndry-col fndry-responsive-bg fndry-col--4 fndry-col--md-12 fndry-pr--4 fndry-pr--md-3 fndry-pl--md-3 fndry-pr--sm-1 fndry-pl--sm-1\">\n\t<h3 class=\"fndry-heading\">Rolan Batallones<\/h3><p class=\"fndry-paragraph fndry-text-bannerSubheading14\">He\/Him\/His<\/p><p class=\"fndry-paragraph fndry-text-bannerSubheading14\">MEd, RCC<\/p><div  class=\"fndry-container fndry-responsive-bg border-top fndry-pt--1 fndry-mt--2\">\n\t<ul  class=\"fndry-list fndry-list--custom fndry-d--flex fndry-flex--col\" style=\"--fndry-list-marker-color:var(--fndry-color-secondary);--color:var(--fndry-color-black)\"><\/ul><\/div>\n<div  class=\"fndry-container fndry-responsive-bg border-top padding-left-3  fndry-pt--1 fndry-pb--1\">\n\t<ul  class=\"fndry-social-list fndry-justify--start fndry-align--center fndry-flex--row\" style=\"--fndry-social-list-size:1.5rem;--fndry-social-list-color:var(--fndry-color-secondary)\">\n\t<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"fndry-col fndry-responsive-bg fndry-col--8 fndry-col--md-12 fndry-pr--3 fndry-pr--md-3 fndry-pl--md-3 fndry-pr--sm-1 fndry-pl--sm-1\">\n\t<p class=\"fndry-paragraph\"><strong>Professional bio<\/strong>: Rolan is a Registered Clinical Counsellor with the BC Association of Clinical Counsellors.

Outside of my work as a Psychiatry Resident, and volunteer work at QCHAT, I enjoy group fitness, good science fiction literature, creative meals, and time with my family.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"fndry-slideout-block\" data-fndry-js=\"slideout-block\">\n    <a  data-fndry-js=\"slideout-content\" href=\"#fndry-block-64c8263d1285d\" type=\"button\" class=\"fndry-slideout-block__slideout-content\" aria-controls=\"fndry-block-64c8263d1285d\">\n        <div\n\t         class=\"fndry-slideout-block__img-container\"        >\n\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bcchr.ca\/tgrc\/files\/2025\/03\/loryn_picture.jpeg\" class=\"fndry-slideout-block__img\" style=\"--slideout-img-zoom:1.25\" \/>        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"fndry-slideout-block__content\">\n            <div  class=\"fndry-slideout-block__heading-wrap\">\n                <div  class=\"fndry-slideout-block__heading-wrap-container fndry-d--flex fndry-flex--row\" style=\"--slideout-heading-gap:5px\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"fndry-slideout-block__heading fndry-text-h3SectionHeadline26\">Loryn Byres<\/h3>\t\t\t\t\t                <\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t                        <span class=\"fndry-slideout-toggle\"><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t            <\/div>\n            <div  class=\"fndry-slideout-block__excerpt-wrap\">\n\t\t\t\t<p class=\"fndry-slideout-block__excerpt fndry-text-slideoutExcerpt\">Genetic Counsellor<\/p>            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/a>\n    <div id=\"fndry-block-64c8263d1285d\"\n         class=\"fndry-slideout-block__slideout-hidden fndry-collapse--hidden\"\n         data-fndry-js=\"slideout-hidden\">\n        <div class=\"fndry-slideout-block__content-hidden\">\n\t\t\t                <button data-fndry-js=\"slideout-close-btn\"\n                        class=\"fndry-slideout-block__close-btn\"\n                        aria-label=\"Close\"\n                        aria-controls=\"fndry-block-64c8263d1285d\">\n                <\/button>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div  class=\"fndry-container fndry-responsive-bg fndry-pt--3 fndry-pb--2 fndry-pr--4 fndry-pl--4 fndry-pr--md-3 fndry-pl--md-3 fndry-pr--sm-2 fndry-pl--sm-2\" style=\"border-radius:5px;--fndry-bg:var(--fndry-color-light)\">\n\t<div class=\"fndry-row fndry-row--gutter fndry-align--start fndry-justify--between\">\n\t<div  class=\"fndry-col fndry-responsive-bg fndry-col--4 fndry-col--md-12 fndry-pr--4 fndry-pr--md-3 fndry-pl--md-3 fndry-pr--sm-1 fndry-pl--sm-1\">\n\t<h3 class=\"fndry-heading\">Loryn Byres<\/h3><p class=\"fndry-paragraph fndry-text-bannerSubheading14\">MSc, CGC<\/p><div  class=\"fndry-container fndry-responsive-bg 1 fndry-pt--1 fndry-mt--2\">\n\t<ul  class=\"fndry-list fndry-list--custom fndry-d--flex fndry-flex--col\" style=\"--fndry-list-marker-color:var(--fndry-color-secondary);--color:var(--fndry-color-black)\"><\/ul><\/div>\n<div  class=\"fndry-container fndry-responsive-bg  padding-left-3  fndry-pt--1 fndry-pb--1\">\n\t<ul  class=\"fndry-social-list fndry-justify--start fndry-align--center fndry-flex--row\" style=\"--fndry-social-list-size:1.5rem;--fndry-social-list-color:var(--fndry-color-secondary)\">\n\t<\/ul><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div  class=\"fndry-col fndry-responsive-bg fndry-col--8 fndry-col--md-12 fndry-pr--3 fndry-pr--md-3 fndry-pl--md-3 fndry-pr--sm-1 fndry-pl--sm-1\">\n\t<p class=\"fndry-paragraph\"><strong>Professional bio<\/strong>: Loryn Byres is a board-certified genetic counsellor.

Dr. Lynda Balneaves, supported by a CIHR Frederick Banting and Charles Best Doctoral Research Award, UBC Killam Doctoral Scholarship, and a UBC Four Year Fellowship. Dr. Hippman\u2019s doctoral work focused on how we can better support women who are trying to decide whether to take antidepressants during pregnancy. Dr. Hippman built a feminist, woman-centered, theoretical model of decision making from women\u2019s stories, and showed that there isn\u2019t yet enough evidence for genetic testing to guide antidepressant prescribing during pregnancy. Her work can be used to support women making decisions about how to care for their mental health during pregnancy.
