Dr. Katherine Kitchens, who graduates from UT Arlington today, was inspired to pursue her Ph.D. in social work after working with marginalized populations at a community clinic during her master's program. Her research focused on cognitive decline among resettled refugees, revealing that older refugees are at higher risk of cognitive impairment compared to other immigrant groups. Kitchens will continue her work at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School, aiming to bridge public health, neuroscience, and social work to improve care for refugees.
