Summary

  • I am an academic psychiatrist, whose research in the system neuroscience of trauma and behavioral adaptation to it. I translate these findings in my clinical work on the South Side of Chicago. I also am interested in how health care workers develop resilience in the face of stress and trauma. For fun I like to give lectures about personality disorder, my favorite people to think about.
