Our guest speaker this month is Hugh Garavan! Speaker: Hugh Garavan (University of Vermont) Presentation Title: Capturing individual differences in ABCD: Insights into task fMRI and cannabis use Webinar Registration - https://umassmed.zoom.us/meeting/registe... Announcement Hugh Garavan (University of Vermont, Larner Medical School; Professor in Psychiatry, Psychology) is our guest peaker this month. Hugh is a cognitive neuroscientist with very extensive experience using structural and functional neuroimaging to study cognitive control and reward processes, particularly in adolescent development, including addiction and mental health issues. He has notable leadership roles and contributions to a spectrum of longitudinal high impact neuroimaging studies and with large data sets of brain and behavioral development, including Site PI and Associate Directory roles for the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) and Healthy Brain Child Development (HBCD) studies, as well as co-founder of the ENIGMA-Addiction working group and a co-investigator on the IMAGEN project. Bio: Professor Garavan received his PhD in Cognitive Psychology and Behavioral Neuroscience from Bowling Green State University in Ohio, completed postdoctoral fellowships at Cornell University and the Medical College of Wisconsin, and was an Associate Professor in Psychology at Trinity College Dublin prior to his move to Vermont in 2011. His research uses structural and functional neuroimaging to study cognitive control and reward processes with a particular focus on adolescent development, addiction and related mental health issues. He is a co-investigator on the IMAGEN project, a longitudinal neuroimaging-genetic study of over 2,000 teens in Europe. He is a site PI and Associate Director of both the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development study, a longitudinal neuroimaging-genetic study of over 11,000 children in the USA and the Healthy Brain Child Development study, a longitudinal study of over 5,000 pregnant people and their children from birth to age 10. He is PI on a T32 focused on complex systems methodologies for large neuroimaging datasets, is co-PI on two R25 grants that provide training on the ABCD and HBCD datasets to junior investigators, and is co-founder of the ENIGMA-Addiction working group which is a global neuroimaging data pooling endeavor. |
