Catrin Zharyy

Catrin graduated from Northeastern University in May 2023 with a Bachelor of Science in behavioral neuroscience and a minor in cultural anthropology. As an undergraduate, she spent some time working under Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett in the Interdisciplinary Affective Science Lab beta-testing an application that was to be used for daily diary study on recall of affective states. She also completed two six-month full-time internships in the Clinical Affective Neuroscience and Development Lab at Yale led by Dr. Dylan Gee, where she tracked participant progress in a longitudinal neuroimaging study of anxiety mitigation in children, and the Lee Lab at Harvard Medical School led by Dr. Wei-Chung Allen Lee, where she traced neurons in electron microscopy datasets to map decision-making cortex in mouse and olfactory lobe in mosquito. Catrin is interested in cultural psychiatry and critical neuroscience and aims to pursue a PhD.
