Dr. Miller’s program of research focuses on identifying psychological and neurobiological mechanisms linking early childhood adversity exposure with risk for suicide across the child and adolescent developmental trajectory. To investigate this overarching question, Dr. Miller leverages mobile technology, functional MRI methodologies, and intensive and traditional longitudinal designs. His work is based in developmental psychopathology principals by acknowledging that pathways to suicide risk dynamically change over the course of childhood and adolescent development. His work has been continuously funded by the National Institute Health. Ultimately, the goal of Dr. Miller’s work is to identify pathways to suicide risk and identify ways to intervene with novel technological approaches.
