Biography

The Case Lab focuses on the interplay between the brain and the immune system. We particularly are interested in how trauma, such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), influences negative physiology such as auto-immune disorders or cardiovascular diseases. We are also interested in how the immune system can shape behavior before and after trauma, so we can further understand the two-way street between physiology and psychology.
