Our Focus

D is for Diet!

The Biopsychosocial Health and Cognition (BHAC) Lab is focused on examining biological, psychological, and social predictors of brain outcomes and cognitive function. Specifically, we are interested in the role of cardiovascular risk factors and other markers of chronic disease, as well as psychological and social factors that promote or reduce optimal brain and cognitive functioning. Our work is deeply rooted in the examination of health disparities. As such, we are particularly interested in patterns of findings that emerge for vulnerable populations such as African Americans.
