Postdoctoral Fellow
University of Chicago
Chicago, Illinois, United States

Liz is a NIA T32 postdoctoral fellow in the Center for Health and the Social Sciences at the University of Chicago. She completed her PhD in Gerontology at the University of Southern California and her Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and her Master of Arts in Gerontology at Georgia State University. Her research focuses on abuse over the life course, including late-life intimate partner violence, elder abuse prevention, intervention and policy, caregiving, and the impact of adverse childhood experiences into later life. Her current research aims to differentiate intimate partner violence in late-life from elder mistreatment by spouses and intimate partners and starting to build foundational research conceptualizing IPV in later life to determine best practices for identifying the needs of victims and providing resources tailored to those needs.
