Associate Professor
Research Interests:
1) To identify basic neural mechanisms in the interaction of positive affect (ranging dimensionally from low to high positive affect) and cognitive function, 2) to understand disorders primarily characterized by low positive affect such as depression, postpartum depression, and chronic pain disorders using basic neuroscience methods, and 3) to advance neuroscience-informed interventions that target modifiable brain structures that implement affect in order to promote physical well-being and psychological vitality.
