Research Narrative
I have conducted clinical research on sleep disturbances in hospitalized patients with dementia, on Huntington’s Disease, on neuropsychiatric correlates of TBI and served as a consultant to the NFL grant studying TBI. In 2013 I received a NIMH career development award (K23) to study whether cognitive performance, MRI and DTI brain changes can predict the response to cognitive processing therapy in individuals with PTSD and co-morbid mild TBI. I am currently conducting research on biological markers of PTSD, memory reconsolidation blockade as treatment for PTSD, and novel treatments for post-TBI depression. I am currently PI on a R21 NIMH grant, Mismatch vs. standard intervention during memory reconsolidation blockade with propranolol: effect on psychophysiological reactivity during traumatic imagery. As the Senior Director of Research at the Home Base Program, I have established collaborations with several regional, national, and international researchers, which have led to funded research collaborations. I am building the Home Base research infrastructure. In the future, I plan to continue studying treatment effectiveness and mechanisms of neuropsychiatric diseases.
