Collaborations across research and industry are essential to getting the best evidence-based care to the greatest number of people. But they can also be tricky: researchers and industry professionals are often motivated by different incentives, goals, and timelines.
To shed light on these challenges, the University of Virginia’s Thriving Youth in a Digital Environment initiative (UVA TYDE) and the Society for Behavioral Medicine’s ICC are organizing the 2026 Digital Health Summer Speaker Series: virtual lunch-hour conversations on the key themes shaping digital mental health.
For our third conversation, Drs. Levens and Sagui Henson will discuss how Behavioral Science Health Psychology research programs can prepare students to thrive in industry, including the importance of hands-on learning through research practicums and internships.
