Andrea is a member of the Seneca-Cayuga Nation (Deer Clan) and a third year graduate student in the Clinical Science and Psychopathology Research Ph.D program. She is interested in the relationship between forms of stress (e.g. minority stress in Native American populations, chronic stressors such as poverty, and childhood maltreatment) and suicidal thoughts and behaviors in childhood and adolescence. She examines neurobiological and psychophysiological mechanisms that may inform how these constructs are related.
