TEEN Lab

The Teen Lab is dedicated to understanding pathways to health risk behaviors (e.g., alcohol and substance use, risky sexual behavior) to inform accessible prevention efforts, especially among those most at-risk of engaging in such behaviors. The Teen Lab focuses on promotion of accessible, feasible, and cost-effective interventions for teens. We therefore build mutually-beneficial partnerships with schools to understand their needs, increase their capacity for intervention delivery, and promote implementation of evidence-based practices.

SEED Lab

The Study of Emotions & Eating Disorders (SEED) Lab conducts research to advance the understanding of eating and related psychopathology. Specifically, we study (1) sociocultural and emotion-based factors that elevate risk for disordered eating and (2) emotional, psychological, and social consequences of disordered eating. We prioritize the study of groups that are at disproportionate risk for eating disorders, but historically underrepresented in the research, such as, but not limited to, individuals experiencing food insecurity.
