Description:
|
Detroit has a high rate of
asthma sufferers, especially
among young African-
Americans, a healthcare
crisis that involves social,
economic – and psychological
– issues. Psychologist Karen
Kolmodin MacDonnell
discusses the Detroit Young
Adult Asthma Project and its
Innovative work Thursday,
February 22, at 7 p.m. in
the College's Bobbitt Visual
Arts Center.
MacDonnell is an associate
professor at Wayne State
University School of
Medicine, where her research
involves both developmental
and behavioral psychology.
MacDonnell will discuss the
challenges faced by young
adults who have limited
access to health care, and
her own work designing
behavior-based, clinically-
tested interventions for
this group.
This presentation is free
and open to the public. For
