Summary of Research and Teaching Interests:

I am an experimental psychologist who received postdoctoral training in psychoneuroimmunology. My research program focuses on stress and its psychophysiological correlates. I examine such responses in a variety of populations. I also am interested in the placebo effect.

I teach a graduate course in Psychoneuroimmunology, as well as undergraduate courses in experimental psychology, biological psychology, and the psychobiology of stress.
