At a recent meeting of the Society of Behavioral Medicine, CPS Doctoral student Kavita Joshi was recognized with a Meritorious Student Award for a presentation based on her research, a Pilot Study of Posttraumatic Stress and Cardiovascular Risk among Young Adults. Joshi collaborated with CPS Associate Professor Jeff Kibler, Ph.D., on the project which highlighted preliminary evidence that young adults with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) experience more cardiovascular risk factors than adults of similar age, race, and gender, who do not experience mental health difficulties.
