Tess will be using the HBIC award to support a trip to Macquarie University, Sydney, to work with Dr Philippe Gilchrist and A\/Prof Melissa Norberg on a project investigating drinking behaviour using psychophysiological measures. This project builds on her Ph.D. research, which investigates the impact of glass shape on drinking behaviours for soft drinks. The experiment she will conduct during her visit to Macquarie University will use facial electromyography (EMG) to measure activity in the orbicularis oris during sipping from glasses of different shapes.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">International Society of Behavioral Medicine<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Winner: Suzanne Tanya Nethan<br \/>\nHome institution: ICMR-National Institute of Cancer Prevention and Research, Noida, India, LMIC applicant<br \/>\nHost\/mentor institution: Dr Tami-Maury, The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Centre, USA<br \/>\nPosition: Scientist<br \/>\nProject: To contribute to a project based on assessing the use pattern of betel quid (BQ) among Asian immigrants and Asian descents living in Texas (USA).<br \/>\nEmail: suzanne.nethan@gmail.com<\/p>\n<p>Biographical and project sketch: Dr. Suzanne Tanya Nethan is a trained dentist with a specialization in Oral Medicine &amp; Radiology, and employed with the Indian Council of Medical Research &#8211; National Institute of Cancer Prevention &amp; Research, India (in the division of clinical oncology).

As part of this award, Thomas will travel to the laboratories of Professors Sarah Garfinkel and Hugo Critchley at Brighton and Sussex Medical School in the United Kingdom. His proposed project will adapt a standard psychological stress paradigm to experimentally manipulate cardiac afferent signaling. The proposed project will explore the impact of this manipulation on subjective and cardiovascular responses to psychological stress.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Society for Behavioral Medicine (USA)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Winner: Leslie Johnson<br \/>\nHome institution: Emory University, USA<br \/>\nHost\/mentor institution: Professor Brian Oldenburg, University of Melbourne, Australia<br \/>\nPosition: Post-doctoral Fellow<br \/>\nProject: To examine the prevalence and correlates of depression and anxiety among participants in the Kerala Diabetes Prevention Program (K-DPP) and conduct a culturally-sensitive qualitative<br \/>\nanalysis identifying anxiety triggers related to diabetes care among adults with T2DM in India.<br \/>\nEmail: lmunoz@emory.edu<\/p>\n<p>Biographical and project sketch: Dr. Leslie Johnson is currently a postdoctoral fellow at Emory University\u2019s Rollins School of Public Health in the Hubert Department of Global Health, working primarily with the Emory Global Diabetes Research Center. Dr. Johnson plans to use this award to enhance her implementation research competencies, develop collaborative partnerships with international chronic disease researchers working in India, and build mixed-methods research capacity within the Non-Communicable Disease Unit (NCDU) during her visit to the University of Melbourne in Australia. Using data from two implementation trials conducted in India, Dr. Johnson will partner with NCDU researchers to conduct novel mixed-methods analyses examining the prevalence and persistence of anxiety and depression among adults at risk for developing type 2 diabetes mellitus and to identify triggers of diabetes-related anxiety within the Indian context. Findings from this project aim to improve diabetes management interventions in India, where there is the highest absolute burden of diabetes in the world, by advancing knowledge of physical and mental comorbidity.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Society for Health Psychology<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Winner: Chloe Huelsnitz<br \/>\nHome institution: University of Minnesota, USA<br \/>\nHost\/mentor Institution: Professor Urte Scholz, University of Zurich, Switzerland<br \/>\nPosition: Graduate Student<br \/>\nProject: To understand how to optimize social control to improve individual and dyadic health while also maintaining or improving relationship functioning.<br \/>\nEmail: MIRO0047@UMN.EDU<\/p>\n<p>Biographical and project sketch: Chloe Huelsnitz is a PhD candidate at the University of Minnesota, where she conducts research examining the effects of interpersonal processes (e.g., social support, social control) on promoting health behaviors such as sun protection, sleep, dietary behavior, and physical activity.
