Research Description

I study psychological and neural mechanisms relating cognitive, emotional, and physiological aspects of normal human behavior and psychopathology, especially executive function, emotional dysregulation, and sensory processes, using psychophysiological methods, emphasizing MRI, EEG, MEG, and EKG. I am Professor Emeritus and Beckman Institute Affiliate Faculty at UIUC, and I co-direct the UIUC CANOPY lab with Prof. Wendy Heller. I am also Distinguished Research Professor in the Department of Psychology and the Department of Psychiatry and Biobehavioral Sciences at UCLA and co-direct its Laboratory of Clinical and Affective Psychophysiology with Prof. Cindy Yee-Bradbury. In collaboration with Profs. Heller and Brad Sutton at UIUC, MRI and EKG studies explore the differentiation of anxiety and depression. In collaboration with Profs. Yee-Bradbury, Katie Karlsgodt, and Keith Nuechterlein at UCLA, Dr. Tzvetan Popov at the University of Konstanz, and Prof. Jeff Spielberg at the University of Delaware, studies evaluate brain and heart-brain connectivity in the context of cognitive training, exercise, and stress dynamics in schizophrenia using MRI, EEG, and EKG methods. In collaboration with Profs. J. Christopher Edgar and Yu-han Chen at the University of Pennsylvania and the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, MRI, MEG, and EEG studies explore compromised sensory processing in psychopathology and early development. I am not taking new graduate students.
