Emily Dworkin

Dr. Emily Dworkin is a licensed clinical psychologist and an associate professor at the University of Washington, specializing in trauma recovery and health disparities. With a focus on understanding the higher risk of trauma-related mental health issues among sexual minority women, her research has been impacted by significant cuts to National Institutes of Health funding, leading to the termination of her grant. Dworkin has been vocal about the implications of these funding cuts on scientific inquiry and the health of vulnerable populations.
