Lizzie Adler

Originally from Westchester, New York, Lizzie Adler is a rising senior at Duke University, where she studies psychology and neuroscience. Lizzie has always had a strong interest in trauma research, and has worked at Duke’s Center for Autism as well as a pain management lab. She shares: “Global Mental Health is an imperative issue that is applicable to all psych and neuro research, which is why I am excited to be working for such an important program this summer. I think I will learn a lot about the ways in which my interests in psychology are applicable to many different fields within global mental health.”
