Biography

I utilize large open datasets (e.g., https://www.humanconnectome.org/study/hcp-young-adult/overview; https://abcdstudy.org/about.html; http://www.ukbiobank.ac.uk/about-biobank-uk/) to investigate the genetic and neurobiological basis of addiction and related phenotypes, namely impulsivity. In collaboration with multidisciplinary teams within and across institutions, I apply genetic, neuroimaging, and machine learning methodology to dissect these constructs at a high level of resolution. The goal of this research is to advance our understanding of the biological basis of psychological disorders and risk factors in order to improve treatment individualization and influence the development of novel therapeutics.

Additional potential projects in the planning stages include: 1) exploring the organizational factors impacting well-being, readiness, and turnover in service members exhibiting harmful alcohol use; 2) testing a novel intervention for post-concussive symptoms; and 3) characterizing unique aspects of drug use in LGB individuals.

Biography

For over two decades Dr. Sbrocco has focused on obesity treatment and prevention among African American communities, working to raise the awareness of the health risks associated with obesity and empower faith-based communities to engage in health promotion and disease prevention. More recently, she has turned her focus to include obesity prevention and treatment in military communities at risk for excess weight gain by targeting excessive weight gain during high-risk periods. Dr. Sbrocco conducts research designed to promote long-term behavior change in the treatment of obesity. Her goal is to develop ways to empower communities to support behavior change that prevents weight-related diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and cancers. She also is involved in research examining ethnic differences in psychological constructs (e.g., body image, anxiety) and responses to stress.

Biography

Andrew J. Waters, Ph.D., received his Ph.D. in experimental cognitive psychology. He has subsequently focused on the area of cognition and psychopathology, with a special emphasis on the addictions. Dr. Waters's research involves three intersecting themes. One theme is to use tasks derived from human experimental cognitive psychology to help us measure the cognitive processes - implicit and explicit - that underlie addiction (and other psychopathologies). For example, he has shown that measures derived from computerized tasks administered in laboratory settings tell us information about addiction over and above the information derived from questionnaires. A second theme is to administer cognitive tasks on personal digital assistants (PDAs) or Smartphones using Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA). This affords the collection of rich datasets on cognitive processes in a real world setting. A third theme is to use modified cognitive tasks as interventions to change cognition and behavior. Dr. Waters directs the Laboratory of Cognitive Interventions (LOCI). Cognitive retraining interventions can be delivered in a laboratory or on a mobile device such as a PDA or a Smartphone. Currently the laboratory is examining the efficacy of a cognitive retraining intervention delivered on a Smartphone. Ultimately, cognitive and other interventions might be delivered on a Smartphone when the individual is most in need of the intervention (EMI, Ecological Momentary Intervention). Other research interests include: expertise; unconscious cognition; decision making; psychology of music.
