Kathleen R. Catanese
My research interests are in the areas of social exclusion and belongingness, forgiveness, and sex & gender. More recently, my interests have also expanded to the area of peace, conflict, and social justice. I am also the principal investigator and co-director of a National Institutes of Health Division of Minority Opportunities in Research Bridges to the Baccalaureate grant. The misson of our program, called Bridges to Success in the Sciences, is to encourage underrepresented students to pursue degrees in biomedical and behavioral science and to provide support and mentorship to students as they transfer to and complete their science education at a four year institution.
