Research Interests

Current research activities surround the neural correlates of foresight : Projects center around how the brain tracks, anticipates and responds to environmental cues about its future survival and success. These projects investigate both cognitive and affective processes that are crucial to adaptive decision-making. These projects have a translational focus in examining how such processes are adaptive in the workplace -exs: managerial and leadership decision-making.

Intellectual freedom and support to develop and pursue one's own research interests-if such research interests are viable, financial support is offered. Iowa City is a typical small college town, with warm, friendly people with a stimulating intellectual environment-especially in the Neuroscience program.
