Bio

Stein is a leading nurse researcher in the area of health risk behaviors in adolescent and young adult females with a focus on individual differences in identity development as a determinant of these behaviors.

Since joining the University of Rochester faculty, Stein has established a strong working relationship with the farmworker community in Western New York. She and her team developed an image and audio-based cell phone application to measure disordered eating and weight control behaviors, alcohol and tobacco use in the female farmworker population.

Currently she is working with a team from computer science and public health to develop a culturally sensitive mobile phone delivered intervention to promote healthy eating in Mexican farmworker women and their families. 

Dr. Stein was editor of the Journal of the American Psychiatric Nurses Association from 2006-2016, a charter member of the NINR Children and Family Scientific Review group and has served on numerous NIH review panels since that time. She is a member of the American Academy of Nursing and has been recognized by national awards including the American Psychiatric Nurses Association Award for Excellence in Research and the University of Connecticut Marlene Kramer Distinguished Alumni Award for Research in Nursing.

Prior to joining the University of Rochester School of Nursing in 2011, Stein was a professor of nursing at the University of Michigan School of Nursing and associate professor of psychiatry in the Medical School. She earned her bachelor’s degree in nursing from the University of Connecticut, her master’s degree from Boston University, and her PhD from the University of Michigan.
