I am using a multimodal approach including computational modeling to describe, quantify, and predict the biological and psychological mechanisms that determine intact or impaired social functioning over the course of development. Investigating how these mechanisms are altered by treatments in psychiatric populations. Read more about my research here and here. An interview on my work can also be found here.

I am currently seeking a postdoc to fill a funded three-year position for my lab. If you are interested in this position, please click here for further information.
