About Catherine Martins

I am a 3-year BSc Natural Sciences student, majoring in Neuroscience and Psychology. I am interested in pursuing a career in brain-imaging and neurotechnology. I want to participate in projects devoted to innovating new ways to support people who live with neural conditions, and help share their stories through documentary film-making. I believe that providing more and better ways to cultivate understanding for one another can bring more compassion and kindness to our world. I think these two elements are often overlooked and under-practiced, and yet have a profound impact when integrated into our work and our lives. With this idea, I really love to travel and get involved in new projects and experiences to learn more about myself and other humans and their stories.

Short film about my four-weeks in Nepal working with SOS Children's Villages

Thank you Youness! I saw that you also worked with SOS through your posts on the network-- it was really cool to read your weekly updates and see how you created your own impact there (and super creatively!!)
