My main research interest is to understand how emotion processing is regulated in the brain and what neurobiological changes underlie the deficits in emotion processing. My disciplinary research currently focuses on fear learning, a core process in the development of anxiety disorders. This line of research aims to better understand the mechanisms underlying normal and maladaptive fear learning and potentially identify new pharmacological targets for treatment of anxiety disorders.
