Katelin Schutz is an American particle physicist known for using cosmological observations to study dark sectors, that is new particles and forces that interact weakly with the visible world. She was a NASA Einstein Fellow[1] and Pappalardo Fellow[2] in the MIT Department of Physics and is currently an assistant professor of physics at McGill University.[3]

The American Physical Society awarded her the Sakurai Dissertation Award in theoretical particle physics in 2020, citing the highly original contributions from her PhD work.[4]
