Research People and Projects As part of the VCU Alcohol Research Center, Dr. Dick’s work involves multivariate analyses for gene identification for alcohol use outcomes.
The project applies multivariate genomic analyses to advance gene identification for substance use disorders using multiple samples.
MYS was designed to identify the life course trajectories of adolescents (aged 10-18) living in poverty in the Mobile-Prichard inner city area of Alabama.
The purpose of this study is to understand participating students’ experiences by learning more about what aspects of CRPs are working well and what could be improved. It is our…
