CARING FOR SURVIVORS OF SEXUAL TRAUMA
Kristin Cuevas, OMS-III, added an important voice to the national discourse about sexual
assault and abuse as the lead author of a paper about how physicians can better care
for survivors of sexual trauma. Cuevas worked with Heritage College faculty members
Jane Balbo, D.O. (’07); Krista Duval, D.O. (’08); and Elizabeth Beverly, Ph.D., on the article,
“Neurobiology of Sexual Assault and Osteopathic Considerations for Trauma-Informed Care
and Practice,” which was published in the February 2018 issue of the Journal of the American
Osteopathic Association and featured in national media outlets including Newsweek.
Cuevas is one of 11 medical students who were first authors on primary care-related journal
articles this year, working alongside faculty and staff.
