DeMond M. Grant, Ph.D.
Anxiety; EEG/ERPs; peripheral psychophysiology
| Degree: | Ph.D. |
| Broad Expertise/Interests: | How anxiety affects information processing; attention; working memory; comorbidity between anxiety and depression |
| Equipment/Techniques: | EEG/ERP; peripheral psychophysiology (ECG; SCL; EMG-startle) |
| Seeking Collaborators with Skill Sets: | Immunology; fMRI |
| Neuroscience Research Interests: | My research evaluates how anxiety affects information processing. In particular, I study how anxiety, with a focus on social anxiety and GAD, affects what we pay attention to. I also am interested in moderators of these affects, with an emphasis on attentional control/CE. I use ERPs and information processing tasks to study this. |
