Zhaohan Wu   Clinical Graduate Student

  Email: zwu@psy.fsu.edu 

   Research Interests:  I am interested in the role neural oscillations play      in psychopathologies, especially anxiety-related disorder. I am also    interested in how to modulate neural oscillations with new    techiques(e.g.tACS) and thus alleviate patients' symptoms.

Joshua Brown   Neuroscience Graduate Student

  Email: jabrown@psy.fsu.edu 

  Research Interests: My primary interests are the refinement of   neuroimaging techniques and the interaction between neural networks   and human cognition. As knowledge of the distributed nature of   cognition has grown, so too has our need for advanced methods for   accurately identifying relevant cortical and subcortical activity. Through   the development of novel analyses of neuroimaging data, more accurate depictions of the neural basis of cognition can be generated. To this end, I am interested in creating and utilizing machine learning algorithms that help in processing the large amounts of data gathered by fMRI and EEG experiments.

Personal Interests: music (trombone, banjo, euphonium, accordion, guitar, tuba) history; Latin

Yijia Ma   Statistics Graduate Student

  Email: yma2@fsu.edu 

  Research Interests: My research interest as a statistics student lies in   the intersection of neuroscience and data analysis. I am particularly   interested in using statistical techniques to gain a deeper understanding   of neural systems and behavior. For example, I am interested in   developing and applying methods for analyzing large-scale neural data   sets, such as functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) and Electroencephalography (EEG) data, to study brain structure and function. I am also interested in using machine learning techniques to analyze these data sets and identify patterns that may be indicative of neurological disorders or disease. I am also interested in using these methods to study how neural activity changes in response to different types of intervention, such as brain stimulation.

  Personal Interests: Cooking and baking, Climbing

Nancy Wei   Research Assistant Professor

  Email: nw23a@fsu.edu 

  Research Interests: I am interested in research combining multimodal   imaging with noninvasive neuromodulation and its applications   neuropsychiatric disorders.

John Massa   Lab Manager

  Email: massa@psy.fsu.edu 

  Research Interests: I am interested in the role of neural   oscillations in information processing and anxiety disorders. I am   also interested in how anxiety severity affects treatment efficacy.

  Personal Interests: Soccer, sociology  

Flavia Altimeyer Menezes   Lab Assistant

  Email: fa19b@fsu.edu 

  Research Interests: I am interested in the study of anxiety threat   processing, the role of neural oscillations on the mechanisms of   PTSD, and sensory threat encoding. I am also particularly interested   in topics concerning the communication pathways and networks in   the brain, as well as neuroplasticity, especially when it concerns   emotional regulation, PTSD, anxiety, and depression. Furthermore, I am interested in the use of multimodal imaging techniques, such as the EEG and fMRI machines, in psychology research.

  Personal Interests: circus acrobatics, dancing, music, bass guitar, foreign languages,   hiking, painting, cooking

You   Undergrads, Graduate Students, Postdoc Fellows
