What We Do
The goal of our research is to identify biological pathways to disordered emotional experience, using multiple methodologies, but primarily event-related potentials (ERPs) as measured by electroencephalogram (EEG).
Much of our work focuses on
a) identifying familially-transmitted neural vulnerabilities for psychopathology
b) understanding how life experiences influence brain functioning and risk for psychopathology
c) identifying environmental and interpersonal processes that interact with neural vulnerabilities to predict psychopathology
d) understanding how these neural vulnerabilities might contribute mechanistically to the development of psychopathology
