RESEARCH INTERESTS
My laboratory performs basic and translational research to understand how our memory system works, how this system goes awry in memory and mood disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease and depression, and how we might be able to modify mood, memory, and underlying neural dysfunction in these disorders. We utilize
interdisciplinary approaches toward understanding memory and factors that impact memory, including high-resolution imaging techniques, PET imaging of amyloid and tau pathology, neuroendocrine and salivary approaches, and novel experimental paradigms to understand brain-behavior relationships.
