Kevin Mastro is a postdoctoral fellow jointly mentored by Bernardo Sabatini and Beth Stevens at Harvard Medical School, Boston Children’s Hospital and the Broad Institute. His long-term goal is to understand how the brain and behavior change over the course of adolescence.
Mastro completed his B.S. in biological sciences and psychology at the University of Connecticut and his Ph.D. in neurobiology at the University of Pittsburgh.
