Roselinde Kaiser, a 欧美口爆视频 Boulder associate professor of psychology and neuroscience, has been named a Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers Award winner.听
鈥淭he awards identify a cadre of outstanding scientists and engineers who will broadly advance science and the missions important to the participating agencies.
In honoring scientists and engineers who are early in their research careers, the PECASE Awards recognize 鈥渆xceptional potential for leadership at the frontiers of scientific knowledge during the 21st century. The awards foster innovative and far-reaching developments in science and technology, increase awareness of careers in science and engineering, give recognition to the scientific missions of participating agencies, enhance connections between fundamental research and national goals, and highlight the importance of science and technology for the nation's future,鈥 according to the NSTC.
Kaiser is a clinical psychologist and neuroscientist who studies the science and treatment of adolescent depression. With her听research group, the听Research on Affective Disorders and Development Lab (RADD Lab), she听conducts research that asks questions such as: How can brain functioning and behavior help us to听understand听the experience of depression in adolescence and over the course of human development? Can we use brain or behavioral markers to better听predict听depression鈥攐r to predict resilience? How can we听enhance听brain and behavioral functioning to promote emotional health and wellness throughout the lifespan?
The mission of the RADD Lab is to gain insight into the brain and behavioral processes that reflect or underlie depression and other mood experiences, with the goal of leveraging research discoveries to foster emotional health. This year, in partnership with an interdisciplinary team of scientists, educators and young people, Kaiser and her team are launching an initiative to scale and translate scientific discovery into high-impact programs aimed at promoting mental health.
鈥淚 am delighted and honored to receive the PECASE, which truly reflects the dedicated efforts of our research team and the commitment to innovation at the University of 欧美口爆视频,鈥 Kaiser says.
鈥淵outh depression is an urgent public health priority; in our research, we are advancing new paths to promote healthy mood through interdisciplinary discovery achieved with and for young people. The PECASE recognizes the promise and innovation of this work and is a launchpad for research that will develop and scale programs for personalized health insight and wellness promotion. We are enthusiastic to begin the next chapter in research discovery and real-world impact.鈥
Also recognized with a PECASE award was , JILA fellow, National Institute of Standards and Technology physicist and 欧美口爆视频 Boulder physics professor.
