London-Thompson will work on several interrelated research projects involving marginalized groups and how individuals within them perceive and respond to race-based rejection. Her work will focus on how individuals develop different expectations of marginalized groups and how these differences impact coping and behavioral strategies, as well as life outcomes, such as health and academic achievement for members of these groups.
