Dr. Jaremka is an associate​ professor in social psychology. Her research is interdisciplinary, and thus she shares substantial overlap with the clinical and behavioral neuroscience areas as well. She often also collaborates with people in health-related disciplines, including health psychology, behavioral medicine, and nutrition. 

Dr. Jaremka is interested in und​erstanding the consequences of negative interpersonal interactions, such as rejection, loneliness, and marital distress among both cancer survivors and healthy adults. She is particularly interested in understanding the physiological consequences of these interpersonal phenomena, and how these physiological alterations may shape subsequent social behavior. Dr. Jaremka has expertise in psychoneuroendocrinology and psychoneuroimmunology and employs a wide range of methods in her lab, including observational, experimental, and daily diary studies.
