What Do We Do?
We conduct research at the intersections of clinical psychology, neuropsychology and cognitive-affective neuroscience. Our research focuses primarily on cognition—the thinking abilities that support human behaviour—and psychopathology, including symptoms and maladaptive traits.
Our research encompasses cognitive and neuroimaging studies of externalizing psychopathology (e.g., disinhibited behaviours/traits, personality disorder), suicidal thinking and behaviours, and depression, with a particular emphasis on executive functions. Our lifespan focused research ranges from studies of personality traits and neurocognitive abilities to brain structure and function.
Who Do We Train?
Our laboratory trains exceptional undergraduate students in Psychology and Neuroscience, graduate students in Clinical Psychology, and post-doctoral research fellows at the University of Toronto.
