Drew Blasco (Social and Behavioral Health), Chia-Liang Dai (Teaching and Learning), Ching-Chen Chen (Counselor Education, School Psychology, and Human Services), and Asma Awan (Social and Behavioral Health) were selected to receive a UNLV 2024 Faculty Opportunity Award for their project entitled, "Theory-based correlates of help-seeking behavior for mental health conditions among young adults: An interdisciplinary study."
The Faculty Opportunity Awards Program (FOA) is intended to help identify core interdisciplinary research teams at UNLV and increase innovative, multiple investigator research and scholarly/creative projects that are funded by extramural agencies, private foundations, or industry. This “seed funding” is designed to bolster the development of strong extramural funding proposals. Teams will involve multiple UNLV colleges/schools and can include external collaborators.
