Robin Nusslock is an Associate Professor of Psychology at Northwestern University where he directs the Affective & Clinical Neuroscience Laboratory. He studies how the brain creates emotion and how these brain systems are implicated in health and well-being. He also studies how stress affects the emotional brain, and bidirectional signaling between the brain and the immune system in generating risk and resilience for mental and physical health problems. Finally, he examines the effect of intervention programs – including meditation – on neuroimmune signaling, and the potential of these programs to protect the developing brain from stress and adversity.
