Amanda Collier

I began working with Drs. Dombrovski and Szanto in 2008 while completing a BS in psychology at the University of Pittsburgh. Currently, I am the research coordinator for the DNPL and for the Program in Cognitive Affective Neuroscience. My research interests include the effects of emotional dysregulation, psychopathology, and trauma on cognitive functions such as decision making and emotional information processing. Some of my research has focused on using psychophysiological methods, such as pupillary reactivity and fMRI, to study cognitive biases in depression and emotional reactivity in psychopathology.
