About Clare Shaffer

I entered the Northeastern Psychology Department in 2020 after receiving my Bachelor’s Degree from Elon University in Psychology and Biology. As an undergraduate, my research was focused on
metabolism, non-invasive brain stimulation methods, and their applications in the context of affect regulation in young adults. During my post-baccalaureate training, I worked on a large grant project that used novel simultaneous psychophysiological and neuroimaging techniques to study affect regulation strategies in Alzheimer’s Disease. As a graduate stduent, I am broadly interested in the metabolic correlates of various mental illnesses and hope to spend my graduate research working on identifying system-wide metabolic phenotypes of psychiatric disorders and their implications for affect and behavior.
