My good friend Patricia Lee, a graduate student at the University of Massachusetts Boston, is working on her dissertation project in the field of clinical psychology, and is looking for participants for her research study. She's interested in understanding how Asian American cope with brain injury. Read on for details:

Maybe you are someone you know fits the bill and can help her out. Patricia is willing to travel to meet subjects. The results from her study will reveal ways in which Asian Americans can be better served, both in rehabilitation and mental health settings.
