Research Focus
I am a member of the UF Center for the Study of Emotion and Attention (CSEA) with a research focus on understanding the psychophysiological (e.g., reflex, pupillary, ocular, electrodermal, cardiovascular, respiratory, and EMG measures), neural (e.g., event-related potentials, steady-state, and fMRI) and behavioral (e.g., memory, RT) profiles elicited during emotional anticipation, perception, imagery, learning and memory in healthy participants, with translation to patients diagnosed with anxiety and mood disorders.
Clinical Focus
Anxiety disorder patients; Parkinson disorder patients.
