HPL welcomes Dr. Jeremy Jamieson from Northeastern University and Dr. Chrisopher Oveis from UC Berkeley who are both joining the lab as post-doctoral scholars.
Welcome
In the Emotion, Health, and Psychophysiology Lab we study embodiment -- how the mind influences the body, and the reciprocal, how bodily changes influence thoughts, emotions, and intentions. For example, we study how emotions are experienced differently along the developmental trajectory, how aging influences risk perceptions and risk taking, how decisions are influenced by acute and chronic stress, and how people manage and attempt to control their racial biases and how those regulatory attempts often fail resulting in revealing greater racial bias.
