Cianna Piercey
  • Position: Student Representative & Social Media Committee Chair
  • Program/Lab/Advisor: 5th year doctoral candidate in the Clinical Psychology PhD program at Colorado State University working with Dr. Hollis Karoly and Dr. Noah Emery.  
  • Research Interests:  Broadly, my research uses mixed methodologies to better understand substance use behavior and drug pharmacology across a range of substances (e.g., cannabis, kratom, psychedelics). I am also particularly interested in understanding the acute effects associated with specific drug combinations and how individuals can reduce risks within the context of polysubstance use. 
  • Fun Fact: Before starting grad school, I taught high school art for one year! 
  • Professional Development Tip: Rest is important and necessary!
