Jeremy M. Lawrence is a fourth-year PhD student in Clinical Psychology at the University of Colorado Boulder and a Graduate Research Assistant at the Institute for Behavioral Genetics, mentored by Andrew Grotzinger. His research applies statistical genetics and multivariate latent-variable approaches (e.g., GWAS, transcriptome-wide association studies, genetic correlations, and Genomic SEM) to clarify shared and subtype-specific genetic architecture across psychiatric and physical health traits. His work includes first-author research on latent dimensions of genetic risk sharing across psychiatric and physical disease, etiological divergences across bipolar subtypes, and unique genetic risk architectures contained within major depression. His collaborative publications investigate the multivariate genetic risk architecture across neurodevelopmental, immune-mediated, and aging-related traits. Clinically, he trains across CU Boulder clinics and the OCD Program at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, with experience in diagnostic assessment and exposure and response prevention therapy.
