Shaina A. Kumar

I am a T32 Postdoctoral Research Fellow affiliated with the Boston University Chobanian & Avedisian School of Medicine and VA Boston National Center for PTSD. I seek to understand how people flourish amidst hardship. To that end, my program of research focuses on identifying factors that promote resilience during and in the aftermath of adversity. Relatedly, I aim to uncover key psychological strengths that foster a sense of wellbeing among trauma survivors.
