CHHS Oustanding Graduate Student
Cathryn Duchette
Catie, a student in our M.S. in Kinesiology program, is described by her advisor, Dr. Rachel Tinius, as intelligent and committed to academic pursuits. Catie is genuinely invested in the art of discovery. She does not do clinical research to "check a box;" she does it because she is genuinely interested and excited to learn. She pays attention to the details, is helpful, and works hard. She has a sweet and kind demeanor. Her abilities to independently conduct research and write scientifically exceed her student status. Cathryn has recently completed a phenomenal thesis project looking at the impact of prenatal yoga on maternal and offspring stress and inflammation. She has been involved in or is a co-author on six papers, none of which includes her forthcoming thesis works, and has won first place for a poster presentation at a regional conference. Cathryn has also found time to volunteer in the community. Congratulations to Cathryn for this recognition!
