Cognitive control and affective theory of mind in early adolescents with callous-unemotional traits
A primary concern for antisocial behavior in youth with callous-unemotional traits is the associated difficulty with processing the emotions of others. The aim of this project is to elucidate specific impairments in neurocognitive function associated with callous-unemotional traits and their impact on processing other’s emotions.

My research interests include mental and social health as well as their associated neural processes across the lifespan. In this vein, I am interested in applying quantitative methods to identify replicable neural mechanisms that may improve testing and development of interventions for youth with callous-unemotional traits.
