As of 2021, Cattell is a professor in the School of Physics and Astronomy at the
University of Minnesota.[1]
Research
Cattell's research on
electron holes in space helps explain the release of energy from magnetic explosions in space.[3][4] Cattell has also examined the energization of electrons in Earth's radiation belt[5] and used satellite data to examine the behavior of ions flowing around Earth.[6][7] Cattell uses her scientific knowledge to present the public with viewing opportunities to see the
Northern Lights.[8]
In 2012, Cattell was diagnosed with cancer and was treated with an experimental drug developed by colleagues at University of Minnesota's
Masonic Cancer Center.[15][16] After receiving an increased dosage of an experimental drug there was a reduction in Cattell's tumor and her lymphoma was considered in remission.[17]
