Dr. Katie Wolsiefer earned her PhD from the University of Colorado Boulder. She is interested in the controlled and automatic processes by which stereotypes and prejudice impact intergroup interactions. Much of her work focuses on how the biases of healthcare providers are communicated to patients and whether/how training may be used to improve care for patients from marginalized groups.  Dr. Wolsiefer loves collaborating with both undergraduate and graduate students on this work. 

Her teaching interests include: statistics, research methods, and social psychology courses.

When not working, Dr. Wolsiefer enjoys rock climbing, hiking, quilting, and annoying her cat, Nina.
