Research Interests
My research focuses on the relationships between stress and behavior. My work focuses on two related, but distinct questions: 1) How does stress impact cognition, especially decision making? And 2) How does stress impact the physiology and behavior of addiction, specifically gambling disorder and substance use disorder?
