Individuals come from all over to train with her given that she has led the field in producing innovative research on the successful assessment and treatment of severe pediatric feeding disorders.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Another nominator, Caitlin Kirkwood, noted that Dr. Piazza revolutionized the role that behavior analysts play in the assessment and treatment of children with feeding disorders. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;From her early work on the functional analyses of inappropriate mealtime behavior and her invited presentations and trainings around the world to teach others about feeding disorders, to her collaborations with nurses, nutritionists, allergists, and pediatric gastroenterologists at UNMC, Dr. Piazza has single-handedly carved a role for behavior analysts in all areas associated with feeding,&#8221; Kirkwood said. <\/p>\n<p>MMI Director Karoly Mirnics, M.D., Ph.D., applauded Dr. Piazza&#8217;s selection for the award. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Beyond being a great researcher and an outstanding clinician, Dr. Piazza is also an amazing, caring mentor,&#8221; he said. &#8220;It is nice to see that all her hard work with her trainees is recognized at a national level.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cathleen Piazza, Ph.D., was selected for the Student Committee Mentorship
