He is an expert in the identification and treatment of early stages of psychotic illness and currently directs the operations of a number of  federally and privately funded clinical research grants aimed at better understanding the developmental trajectory and early warning signs of psychosis and other severe mental illness, as well as stigma associated with the development of mental health concerns. Within this work, he is particularly interested in the role stress and neurocognition play in the development and recovery from mental illness as well as how biological mechanisms may moderate treatment selection and response. Before joining the Commonwealth Research Center, Dr. Shapiro served as a Ruth L. Kirschstein NRSA postdoctoral fellow at the University of Pennsylvania, receiving advanced training in Cognitive Therapy at the Aaron T. Beck Psychopathology Research Center. He is a practicing Clinical Psychologist, holding licensure in multiple states, and maintains a strong interest in the teaching and practice of Cognitive Behavior Therapy.

He has focused primarily on cognition in schizophrenia and ADHD and studies of youth “at risk” for psychosis. He is a licensed clinical psychologist who has long worked with teenagers. He has published more than 380 peer-reviewed papers and he has been Principal Investigator of 31 grants, participating in 80 funded grants since 1978. His current focus is investigating the phase of clinical high risk for psychotic illnesses and treatment of psychosis in the early phases.
