fMRI

To improve our mechanistic understanding adolescent callous-unemotional traits, we used a novel connectivity method to examine network topology in adolescent brains and how connection density and node centrality was different in the presence of callous-unemotional traits.

To understand adolescent brains association with empathy, we examined network level functional connections in adolescent brains that associate with cognitive and affective empathy.

This project seeks to leverage advanced network connectivity approaches to understand functional brain dynamics underlying socio-affective functioning and antisocial phenotypes from adolescence into adulthood.

This project seeks to test the extent to which cognitive impairments amongst adolescents with callous-unemotional traits drive difficulties to infer and understand others emotions.

This project seeks to determine how distinctions in executive function is implicated in distinct antisocial phenotype symptoms.
