ICPS 2023 Brussels International Conference

The PRADAA Lab was very proud to have the opportunity to travel to Brussels, Belgium for the APS International Convention of Psychological Sciences 2023 Conference. The team lead a symposium titled, PTSD in Black Perinatal Women: Under-assessed, Under-diagnosed, Under-treated. We appreciated the great response from the symposium attendees. Also, Keaton Somerville (5th year graduate student) and Alexis McGhee-Dinvaut (1st year graduate student) were able to present posters about sister circles and black grieving behaviors. Our PRADAA team can't wait until our next conference!
