Dr. Carletti于2003年在William Jewell学院获得分子生物学学士学位, 并于2009年在堪萨斯大学医学中心获得分子和综合生理学博士学位. 在堪萨斯大学医学中心做过一段时间的博士后研究研究乳腺癌之后, Dr. 卡莱蒂在家里和她的三个孩子呆了几年,并做了一些兼职教学. After realizing that teaching was her passion, Dr. 2014年,卡莱蒂接受了本尼迪克特学院的一个职位. 她与丈夫和三个孩子住在密苏里州的韦斯顿. In her free time, she loves to run marathons, travel with her family to National Parks, cheer her kids on at all their sporting events, and hang out with the family boxer dog, Chip.

Research Project
与堪萨斯大学医学中心和美国宇航局合作, 我正在做一个研究微重力对老鼠生理影响的项目. 卵巢功能的年龄依赖性下降会影响卵巢雌二醇的产生,而雌二醇的产生反过来又在维持正常的体内平衡和肌肉代谢过程中起关键作用, bone, neural, immune, cardiovascular and the reproductive system. 因此,太空飞行对卵巢雌二醇产生的影响对于理解任何和所有在太空中使用雌性小鼠的实验至关重要. This project investigates variations in ovarian, uterine, adrenal, 以及在地球上长大的老鼠和在国际空间站上长时间生活的老鼠的阴道组织(通过组织学染色检查). 该项目的研究成果在2019年丹佛举行的美国引力与空间研究学会年会上发表, Colorado).
