Background Information:

Dr. Daughters is currently an Assistant Professor and the Director of the Health and Addictions Research in the Department of Public and Community Health, School of Public Health. Her research expertise includes the neurobiological and behavioral determinants of addiction and HIV risk behavior, and the translation of this knowledge into effective prevention and intervention programs aimed at reducing health disparities. She is currently the PI on two NIDA funded grants investigating (1) the relationship between distress tolerance and adolescent substance use and associated HIV risk behavior, and (2) the evaluation of an integrated treatment to increase HIV medication adherence and decrease depression and sexual risk taking behavior among depressed, HIV positive minority substance users. She is also examining the relationship between neurobiological indices of distress tolerance and substance use treatment outcomes via salivary cortisol collection (HPA axis) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
