Hello!

I’m an Assistant Professor in Psychiatry at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). My research uses a human laboratory paradigm to inform pharmacotherapeutic development for addictive disorders, primarily cannabis use disorder. I conduct this work using a combination of methods including pharmacology, psychophysiology, neuroimaging, and ecological momentary assessment.

A key focus of my work is translatability: from animal models to the human laboratory, from the human laboratory to clinical trials, and bidirectionally across sexes. Are you interested in translational addiction research? Contact me.
