Body, Mind, and Brain Lab

Sophia completed her PhD in the Department of Hearing & Speech Sciences at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center and is now a postdoctoral researcher in the Park lab. She is broadly interested in impaired navigation of social and physical spaces in clinical populations. Her current work aims to better understand social impairments and the neural basis of maladaptive social interactions in schizophrenia using a combination of behavioral tasks and neuroimaging. Outside of the lab, she enjoys reading, cooking, and spending time with her partner and dog, Bear.
