 ll’s participation in the Canadian Eastern Regional 3MT\n\nJay Olson (Ph.D
 . Psychiatry) won the ɬ�﷬-wide competition on Tuesday\, Marc
 h 20\, 2018 with his entry “Placebo machines to treat migraines and ADHD” 
 and will be the university’s representative for the Canadian Eastern Regio
 nal.\n\nAt the age of 5\, a magician pulled a coin out of Jay Olson's ear.
  He was fascinated -- and two years later\, he started performing magic hi
 mself. Later\, during his career as a professional magician\, Jay sat in o
 n a friend's psychology class and noticed that many of the ideas taught we
 re similar to what he had learned in magic. This led him to research the p
 sychology behind magic\, and he now uses his knowledge as a magician to en
 hance healing and placebo effects. In his PhD in Psychiatry\, Jay adds a l
 ittle magic to modern medicine.\n\nMore information on the Canadian Easter
