Yuqing Cai is a graduate student in the Behavioral and Cognitive Neuroscience (BCN) program in the Department of Psychology at the University of Florida. She holds master’s degrees in both applied psychology and neuroscience. Her research interests focus on the neural mechanisms underlying perception, emotion, and cognition, and how these processes contribute to psychopathology. More broadly, she is interested in integrating computational and neurophysiological approaches to better understand emotional processing and develop mechanism-informed interventions for psychopathology. To address these questions, she uses multimodal methods, including behavioral analysis, EEG, fMRI, and other physiological measures.
