Cara Louise Santa Maria (born October 19, 1983) [1] is an American science communicator. [1] [2] She hosts the podcast Talk Nerdy [1] [3] and co-hosts The Skeptics' Guide to the Universe podcast, [1] [4] and was a co-host of TechKnow on Al Jazeera America. [5] [6]

Contents

Santa Maria wrote her first blog for The Huffington Post in March 2010 before joining the publication as its founding science correspondent and host of the Talk Nerdy to Me web series from October 2011 until April 2013. [7] [8] She also co-hosted Take Part Live with Jacob Soboroff on Pivot TV. [9] She officially joined the online political and social commentary program The Young Turks as an occasional panelist in May 2013. [10] She was a guest on the TV series Brain Games.

Early life and education

Santa Maria was born and raised in Plano, Texas, [1] the younger of two daughters. Her parents, a school teacher and an engineer, both came from Catholic families and converted to Mormonism together as adults, raising their children in the religion, and for a while Santa Maria attended church daily before classes. [11] Years after her parents divorced, she left the LDS church at 15 and came out as an atheist. [5] Her ancestry is Puerto Rican on her mother's side. [12] : 2:35 

Santa Maria was a vocal jazz performer and auditioned for the second season of American Idol, but was not selected. She then decided to pursue psychology. [13] [14] In 2004, she earned a Bachelor of Science degree in psychology with a minor in philosophy from the University of North Texas, going on to earn a Master of Science in biological science, with a concentration in neuroscience, from her alma mater in 2007. [15]

Santa Maria taught biology and psychology courses to university undergraduates as well as high school students in Texas and New York. [16] [ better source needed ] Her published research has spanned various topics, including clinical psychological assessment, the neuropsychology of blindness, neuronal cell culture techniques, and computational neurophysiology. [16] [ better source needed ] Santa Maria was enrolled in a doctoral program studying clinical neuropsychology at Queens College, CUNY, where she worked as an adjunct professor and laboratory researcher, but withdrew after a year of coursework to pursue science communication full-time.[ citation needed ]

In 2004, Santa Maria won the Texas Psychological Association and Texas Psychology Foundation's Alexander Psychobiology/Psychophysiology Award (Student Merit Research Competition) for contributions in undergraduate research concerning neuropsychological deficits among individuals with alcohol dependence or abuse in a visually impaired/blind population. [17] In the clinical neuropsychological setting, Santa Maria assisted in development and research of computer adapted guides for educational management of students with both neuropsychological dysfunction and visual impairment. [18]

In a 2013 interview in Skeptical Inquirer, when asked how she became interested in science, Santa Maria said:

It's funny, because when I was really, really young, I was obsessed with dinosaurs, and I would try to dig up dinosaur bones in my backyard. As a kindergartner, I was sure that I was going to grow up to become a paleontologist. Cut to high school, when I was scared out of my mind of science and avoided science like the plague, and I don't think that I was really well-prepared for that dream. I found out later that you have to study rocks and dirt and all sorts of things that I didn't care about. So I ended up actually studying psychology in college, after making a switch from vocal jazz performance –a random, winding road! It wasn't until I got really into psychology that I realized how fascinating the brain part of the equation, and the brain-behavior relationship, was. So I decided to stick around after I got my undergrad and study biology –specifically neuroscience  –for my master's degree. [13]

As of January 2019, Santa Maria was working toward a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology with a concentration in Social Justice and Diversity from Fielding Graduate University. [19] : Better source needed
