Dr. Weinstock's research program is focused on the development and evaluation of adjunctive behavioral interventions for severe mood disorders and suicide prevention, especially during vulnerable transitions in care (e.g., from inpatient to outpatient treatment, following ED discharge, and from criminal legal to community settings). Most exemplary of her research program is her current work as MPI of the NIMH-funded National Center for Health and Justice Integration for Suicide Prevention (NCHATS; P50MH127512).
Complementing this work is research focused on elucidating the continuum between unipolar and bipolar mood disorders, using both statistical and experimental approaches, and studies on the clinical management of mood disorders (e.g., diagnostic processes, use of polypharmacy) in routine care settings. This latter work has been conducted in an effort to highlight current challenges and disparities that may complicate delivery of evidence based practices, with the long-term aim of informing quality improvement in the assessment and treatment of mood disorders and suicide risk in community settings.
