My research interests involve looking at the biological correlates of risk-taking behavior using a combination of functional neuroimaging, hormones and genetics. In my free time I enjoy hanging out with my friends and my dog, Obie, going to the movies or theater and doing outdoor activities (swimming, hiking, camping).

Mike was a lab manager when the lab was at UC Davis. In the lab, he worked on projects examining self-perception bias and emotion-cognition interactions using neuroimaging and special population methodologies. He is currently a graduate student at University of Cambridge in Simon Baron-Cohen's lab. Mike's interests include social cognition and autism.

Mirre Stallen
Mirre conducted her Master's level research in the lab while visiting us from the Netherlands (2005-2006). Her project examined the neural correlates of the affective and cognitive processes of prejudice. Currently, she is a graduate student at Radboud University Nijmegen in the FC Donders Centre for Cognitive Neuroimaging. Her research focuses on the neuralsystems involved in decision-making.
