Current Research Interests/Projects:
Psychological, neuropsychological, and neural correlates of medically unexplained
illnesses such as Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and Gulf War Illness.
Currently funded by NIH to study the functional brain correlates of auditory
working memory in Chronic Fatigue Syndrome using functional magnetic resonance
imaging (fMRI) as a tool.
