Research Interests: My research focuses on understanding the cognitive and neural basis of memory formation and retrieval of emotionally meaningful events. In particular, I am interested in the functional interaction of brain regions involved in formation and retrieval of autobiographical memory, memory for past events from one’s own life, and in the related topic of how we use elements of our memory to construct simulations of imagined future life events.
I use various techniques including eye tracking, functional brain imaging, and deep brain stimulation to examine how emotion influences cognition and memory. I am currently studying the interaction of emotion, attention, and recollective experience using an approach that incorporates subsequent memory, eye-tracking, and pupillometry data. Our lab is also involved in a study evaluating the developmental trajectory of neural systems involved in the encoding of emotional pictures and the retrieval of emotional autobiographical memories. Most recently, our lab has been involved in a project studying attentional and affective changes after acute or chronic deep brain stimulation (DBS) for treatment-resistent depression.

About me:
How do the dynamic interactions of brain regions generate representations of thought, memory, and emotion? I am pursuing these questions through studying the neural dynamics of autobiographical memory (memory of one's experiences) with fMRI. In addition, I'm fortunate to work in a team seeking to understand the neural and physiological mechanisms for the alleviation of treatment-resistent depression with deep brain stimulation. These studies will inform our understanding of how neural networks process information over-time (dynamically) as we remember our past experiences and how neural networks involved in emotional reactivity change with direct stimulation. In free time, I'm learning to translate science into digestible public information and enjoy basketball, white water rafting, and snowboarding.
