Nate Roy
Nate Roy is an undergraduate student and athlete at Cornell University, where he is completing an interdisciplinary major in neurochemistry. He plays for the Cornell varsity football team, and he has applied this passion to science through an independent research project on concussions which he is working on under Dr. Amy Kuceyeski as part of Weill Cornell’s computational connectomics laboratory. He became fascinated by neuropsychiatry after working as a care associate at an inpatient psychiatric unit, and he is thrilled to have the opportunity to learn in a clinical research setting as an intern in the Division of Neuropsychiatry and Neuromodulation. Outside of academics and athletics, Nate loves to work with kids, and he has volunteered as a track and field coach, youth football coach, mentor, and tutor for middle and high school student athletes.
