Dr. Ozer is a clinical psychologist and professor in Community Health Sciences in the School of Public Health at UC Berkeley. She has extensive experience in multi-disciplinary collaborations to promote positive adolescent development, particularly in youth-led participatory action research (YPAR), civic engagement, violence prevention, and school-based interventions. Dr. Ozer is particularly focused on the promotion of adolescent health through interdisciplinary and multi-method research. Recent efforts involved a multi-method study of an empowerment-oriented participatory research intervention on adolescents attending San Francisco public schools. In her work, she seeks to bridge collaborative-participatory approaches with traditional scientific designs by testing the impact of intentional variation in collaborative processes.
