Graduate Students
Angelina Leary (6th Year)
My research interests focus on interventions targeted to reduce health consequences broadly, including alcohol-related consequences. Specifically, I am very interested in the role identity plays in these interventions, specifically looking at long term outcomes of interventions as a function of identity change. My research is currently funded by the National Science Foundation's Graduate Research Fellowship Program (GRFP). I will be attending Rush University Medical Center- Health Psychology track for pre-doctoral residency.

My research primarily focuses on self-regulation and reward / affective factors that influence eating behaviors. More broadly, I am generally interested in compulsive behaviors associated with adverse health outcomes.

Madison Maynard (4th Year)
My research interests primarily focus on the health-related correlates of cannabis use. Specifically, I am interested in medicinal cannabis use among older adults and resultant pain, sleep, mental health, and neuropsychological outcomes.Click here for a copy of Madison's CV
Emma Hayden (3rd Year)
My research interests primarily focus on the development of interventions for problematic substance use in college students and young adults. Specifically, I am interested in examining predictors of problematic substance use in sexual and gender minority (SGM) young adults and the adaptation of substance use interventions for SGM individuals.

Nadia Rodriguez (1st Year)
My research interests center on the etiology and suicide and self-harm in marginalized populations (primarily among adolescents). I am interested in inter-, intra-, and societal factors that pre-dispose individuals for suicide risk, and the ways in which we may be able to intervene to reduce this risk.Click here for a copy of Nadia's CV
Jordyn Learner (1st Year)
My research interests primarily focus in on the intersection of identity and self-regulation within people with eating pathology. More specifically, I aim to explore how different manifestations of identity, or personality characteristics (e.g., perfectionism, rigidity, need for control), interact with someone’s ability to both gain and sustain adaptive self-regulation skills that aid in eating disorder recovery.
