The BEACH Lab at UNC -
Wilmington is led by Clinical Psychologist, Dr. Nora E. Noel.
The laboratory research focus is the examination of alcohol and
caffeine use as related to social and cognitive behaviors. We
are also studying health related issues, including racial
disparities in
treatment.
Our laboratory is located in
the Teaching Laboratory Building, room 3008, on the UNCW Campus. Research
facilities include technologically equipped experimental rooms,
