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
