Jean-Philippe Gouin, a professor of psychology in the Faculty of Arts and Science, has been renewed as the CRC in Chronic Stress and Health. In his work, Gouin examines the psychosocial factors that either increase or decrease stress faced by caregivers and other individuals exposed to chronic stress.
His research will improve the quality of life for Canadians by helping to develop ways to reduce the negative psychological and biological consequences associated with chronic stress.
