Research Themes
Interests
My research focuses on emotional and cognitive functioning in psychosis and its relationship with biological markers, such as genes, metabolites and immunological molecules.
I am also interested in the effects of cognitive and mood enhancers that may allow improvement of patients’ deficits.
