Congratulations to HALO Affiliate Investigator Dr. Katie Gunnell on receiving a Carleton University Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) Research Excellence Award. Dr. Gunnell summarizes her research interests as follows:
I am interested in understanding the psychological correlates and mechanisms of psychological health and behaviour across various populations including youth, adults, and individuals diagnosed with osteoporosis. In an effort to better understand how to enhance psychological health and physical activity and decrease screen time, I am particularly interested in psychological needs and motivation as mechanisms for change.
Congratulations, Katie!
