معرفی
Dr. Anne Krendl is a Professor in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at Indiana University Bloomington's College of Arts and Sciences, actively recruiting graduate students for Fall 2026. Her research integrates behavioral and neuroimaging approaches to investigate social cognition across the lifespan.
Education:
- Ph.D. in Cognitive Neuroscience, Dartmouth College (2008)
- B.A., Harvard University, cum laude (1998)
Research Focus: Dr. Krendl's work centers on social neuroscience and cognitive aging, examining how social cognition evolves in healthy and pathological aging (including Alzheimer's disease). Her lab investigates stigma related to race, age, gender, and mental/physical illness using fMRI and behavioral methods. Key areas include impression formation, stereotyping, prejudice, and neural mechanisms of social processing.
Publication Trends: Her 2016-2021 publications reveal consistent focus on stigma-aging intersections, with increasing emphasis on pandemic impacts (2021) and opioid addiction stigma (2020). Methodologically, 83% employ fMRI to explore neural correlates of social cognition, while 67% address mental health stigma across diverse populations.
Research Leadership: As director of the NiMBLe lab (Neuroimaging of Mind, Brain, and Learning), Dr. Krendl oversees projects examining lifespan changes in social cognition and mental illness stigma. Her work bridges basic neuroscience with clinical applications, particularly in understanding how stigma affects treatment-seeking behaviors.
