In 2009, Mrs. Biernesser joined the Familial Pathways study under the supervision of David Brent, M.D. at the University of Pittsburgh. The Familial Pathways study began with recruitment of two comparison groups from inpatient psychiatric populations: adult patients hospitalized for depression and history of suicide attempts; and adult patients hospitalized for depression without history of attempt. The patients from these groups and their children were studied longitudinally for a 13 year period to identify paths to early onset suicide attempts in families. Parents and offspring have been evaluated through the use of the K-SADS PL for children and the SCID for adults as well as through neuropsychological testing. Ms. Biernesser currently serves as a clinical and administrative coordinator for David Brent’s research projects. She supervises clinical interviewers, manages Internal Review Board reporting requirements, reports progress to the National Institute of Mental Health, and manages the reliability and quality of clinical interviewing at multiple sites.
