My research focuses on early identification and intervention in schizophrenia. This includes identifying risk factors for developing psychosis, screening for and diagnosing prodromal psychosis, and testing novel interventions for early psychosis. Most of my current work is focused on implementation of evidence-based practices for early intervention in psychosis in community settings.
