My rigorous training in biopsychosocial theory and methodology, including measurement and assessment of biomarkers of health and their relationships with psychosocial phenomena, give me the necessary background to meaningfully collaborate on this project. In my current position as an Assistant Professor of Psychological & Cognitive Sciences and Neuroscience at WPI, I conduct interdisciplinary research on the dynamic relationships among social factors and physiological processes. My expertise includes salivary cortisol, plasma biomarkers, remote data collection (including EMA methods), mHealth technology, wearable sensors, randomized controlled research, laboratory and field experimental designs, survey research, qualitative and interview methods, and various data analytic approaches. In addition to conducting research in my own lab, I actively pursue national and international research collaborations and am skilled at interfacing with and leading multi-site teams. Of particular relevance here, I am currently part of a multi-institution interdisciplinary collaboration investigating psychosocial mediators of pain trajectories in response to integrative medicine interventions.
