Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Alex Preston's research investigates the complex interplay between psychological trauma, stress, and mental health conditions. Their work has explored neural functional connectivity changes in young adults with bipolar disorder in response to psychosocial stress, with preliminary associations to clinical outcomes. Preston has also examined high rates of probable posttraumatic stress disorder in acute psychiatric women's inpatient units, highlighting opportunities for improved diagnosis and intervention. Further research delves into the associations between personality profiles, stress, and resilience characteristics in patients undergoing cancer chemotherapy, as well as pathways between psychological trauma and the development of personality disorders. Additionally, Preston has addressed medico-legal challenges related to consent in electroconvulsive therapy, advocating for legal reform. Their scholarship includes nine publications with 189 citations and an h-index of 2.
