Ruth O'Hara

Director, Spectrum, Senior Associate Dean, Research and Lowell W. and Josephine Q. Berry Professor
Research Interests
Dr. O'Hara's research aims to investigate how cognitive information processing deficits subserve affective symptoms in psychiatric disorders, and interact with key brain networks integral to these disorders. To do so, she has implemented a translational, interdisciplinary program that encompasses cellular models, brain and behavioral assays of affective and cognitive information processing systems in psychiatric disorders across the lifespan.
