I am a physician-scientist specializing in Child Neurology and neuroscience. I study the neural mechanisms underlying the core features of autism spectrum disorder and related neurodevelopmental conditions. My goal…

Sensory, perceptual, and computational aspects of human vision; binocular vision and stereopsis; the comparative physiology and evolution of vision; computational modeling of early visual processes; depth perception…

Dr. Davis’s research focuses on designing and disseminating nutrition, physical activity, and behavioral interventions to reduce obesity and related metabolic disorders in overweight minority children and adolescents…

Memory enables us to use past experience to anticipate and prepare for future challenges. But memories can only be used adaptively if they are retrieved at the right time and place. For instance, memories…

Research in our lab focuses on how emotion and cognition interact to determine how we learn about and remember important events. Some research questions include (1) how do we generalize from past emotional…

The Fonken lab investigates neuroimmune interactions during brain development and aging, with a focus on behavioral outcomes. We are particularly interested in how environmental perturbations alter the function of…
