Bio/Research

Adrian Blow grew up in South Africa and is Assistant Professor in the Department of Human Development and Family Studies at Michigan State University. He is currently the director of the Couple and Family Therapy program in the Human Development and Family Studies deparmtent. He obtained his doctoral degree from Purdue University in 1999, served on the faculty at Saint Louis University for six years, and subsequently joined the faculty at Michigan State University in 2005. Prior to coming to MSU, Adrian was the department chair in the Department of Counseling and Family Therapy at Saint Louis University. He moved to MSU to focus on his primary career goal as a scholar - to be an independent, federally funded researcher studying couple and family therapy interventions targeting key health outcomes. He is involved with several studies related to military deployment including post-deployment adjustment of Michigan National Guard Couples (MING), evaluation of the BuddytoBuddy program (a peer to peer support program), and other family based interventions. He and his collaborators work closely with the MING around issues of data collection, service delivery, and reporting to policy makers about issues related to reintegration.
