Congratulations to Emma Parrish, MS of the UW Psychology Residency General Adult Track for being selected as the winner of this year’s Joseph Becker Research Award. Emma is mentored by Dr. Sarah Kopelovich on a research project to evaluate effectiveness of a brief CBT for psychosis intervention on psychological recovery, cognitive flexibility, and progress on an acute inpatient psychiatric unit. The Joseph Becker, Ph.D. Award for Outstanding Research Achievement is an award established in recognition of the significant contributions of Dr. Joseph Becker to the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences and to the Psychology Internship Program. The establishment of this award honors Dr. Becker’s vision of a scientist-practitioner internship and his long-term presence as a model of the principles this embodies. The award further acknowledges his nationally recognized stature as a clinician-researcher, and as a strong, compassionate teacher and leader. In keeping with Dr. Becker’s vision, the purpose of this award is to stimulate quality research by rewarding an intern for independence, creativity and intellectual depth in a research effort of the internship year. Congratulations to Emma!
