We are a research lab that combines neuroimaging techniques and neurocognitive assessments in order to better understand brain structure and function.
The goal of the Social, Cognitive, and Affective Neuroscience (SCAN) Lab is to contribute to the understanding of the neurobiology underlying human interpersonal and emotional processes, how these systems may be affected by various stresses and the effectiveness of targeted treatments and interventions for restoring optimal functioning. Our work explores the crossroads of several important brain systems involved in motivation, cognition, and emotion.
