About me
I received my B.A. from Harvard University in 1998. After
graduating from Harvard, I worked at CNN as a national assignment
editor. After leaving CNN, I worked as a research assistant for Sue
Corkin at MIT. There, I conducted research on memory and aging, and
worked with the amnesic patient H.M. I went on to Dartmouth College
to study social neuroscience with Todd Heatherton. I earned my Ph.D.
from Dartmouth in 2008.
I have several lines of research that converge on the central
question of stigma. First, I am interested in identifying the
mechanisms underlying how non-stigmatized targets perceive and form
impressions of people who are stigmatized. Of particular interest in
this research is how these processes change over the lifespan.
Finally, I investigate how being stigmatized affects it targets
(i.e., through stereotype threat). I use both behavioral and
neuroimaging (specifically fMRI) techniques to investigate these
questions. I am supported by a National Research Service Award from
the NIA. For or further information, please see my
CV.
