My PhD focused on the interplay between memory and emotional disorder. Specifically, my research investigated the retrieval stopping model of fear extinction, a novel framework that integrates memory suppression and Pavlovian fear extinction to reshape century-old theories of overcoming fear. By combining neuroimaging, behavioural experiments, and latent cause computational modelling, my work explored how actively regulating intrusive fear memories can enhance our understanding of fear extinction and improve therapies for anxiety- and stress-related disorders, such as PTSD. | I completed my PhD in 2024.
