Our lab is focused on human neuroimaging to reveal the brain-based mechanisms underlying:

• Chronic pain and suffering
• The patient/clinician interaction and therapeutic alliance, with a focus on how this relationship can impact pain
• Non-invasive neuromodulation, including different techniques for vagus nerve stimulation
• Acupuncture
• Cognitive and behavioral interventions, such as mindfulness training, CBT, and theory of mind
• Novel methods development for neuroimaging, including hyperscanning
• Psychedelics for pain
