Laura M. Tully University of California, Davis, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, USA
Dr. Laura M. Tully is an assistant professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, University of California, Davis. Her research uses a social cognitive neuroscience approach to study social and affective cognition impairments in psychotic illness. In particular, she focuses on how the interaction of cognitive control and emotion processes and their associated neural systems contribute to symptoms and social deficits in psychotic illness. A major emphasis of her research concerns the relationship between the extent to which individuals with psychosis engage cognitive control of emotion (emotion regulation) mechanisms and influences how they respond to stressful social interactions. She typically uses a combination of neuroimaging (functional magnetic resonance imaging [fMRI]), behavioral, and experience sampling methods (ESM).
