Psi Chi/APA Edwin B. Newman Graduate Research Award: Cope Feurer.

The Edwin B. Newman Graduate Research Award is given jointly by Psi Chi and APA. The award was established to recognize young researchers at the beginning of their professional lives and to commemorate both the 50th anniversary of Psi Chi and the 100th anniversary of psychology as a science (dating from the founding of Wundt's laboratory). It was named for Dr. Edwin B. Newman, the first national president of Psi Chi (1929) and one of its founders. The 2018 recipient is Cope Feurer, "for an outstanding research paper that examines a hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis multilocus genetic profile score (MGPS) as a moderator of the relation between stress and depressive symptoms for offspring of depressed mothers." Her award citation, biography, and a selected bibliography are presented here. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2018 APA, all rights reserved).
