Megan O’Connor
Megan graduated from Stonehill College in 2018 with her B.S. in Neuroscience. She went on to obtain her Graduate Certificate in Intraoperative Neuromonitoring from the University of Connecticut and worked as a neurophysiologist at Nuvasive Clinical Services for the past 5 years. She then completed her M.A. in Psychology at Boston University in 2023. During her graduate studies, Megan’s work mainly investigated the use of behavioral, electrophysiological, and noninvasive neuromodulation techniques to understand the underlying neural mechanisms of perception and cognition and how these mechanisms go awry in normal and pathological aging, and psychiatric illnesses. She then joined the Division of Neuropsychiatry and Neuromodulation at Massachusetts General Hospital as a clinical research coordinator where she treats patients in the Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Clinical Service and assists in various research studies. In her spare time, Megan enjoys traveling, working out, and spending time with her friends.
