We are new to the Department of Psychology at the University of Virgnia !
We study how our brains support complex cognitive functions to better understand why human minds are both flexible and vulnerable to psychopathology. We use a precision neuroscience approach to examine the organization & functions of humans’ large-scale brain networks, as well as how those networks develop & change.
This website is under construction as of January 2026! Check back soon for an updated version.
In the meantime, we are currently recruiting a Postdoctoral Research Associate ! Please reach out with any questions.
