After an arduous selection process, Dr. Carolyn Yeager was named as one of thirty mHealth Scholars for 2022. The competition for this honor is fierce, and this year, over 250 highly qualified professionals applied. According to the mHIT website, "The NIH mHealth Training Institute (mHTI) was created to serve as an incubator for developing transdisciplinary scientists capable of co-creating mHealth solutions for “wicked” healthcare problems." With a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology and an MS in Computer Science, Dr. Yeager truly is one of a kind in her fields of expertise, and her interdisciplinary research into the development of digital health interventions (DHI) for individuals who have experienced trauma, exemplifies why she was selected for this honor.
