معرفی
Dr. Edward Bernat is an Affiliated Faculty member in the Psychology Department at the University of Maryland, College Park. He received his Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the University of Michigan, where he completed postdoctoral work in Biomedical Engineering. His research focuses on neurophysiological mechanisms underlying psychological disorders, with expertise in EEG methodology and time-frequency analysis.
Dr. Bernat's research examines how neurocognitive processes relate to substance use disorders, trauma responses, and emotional dysregulation. He utilizes advanced neuroimaging techniques to investigate neural correlates of psychopathology and treatment response. His work bridges clinical psychology, neuroscience, and biomedical engineering to develop innovative interventions for addiction and trauma-related disorders.
Research publications demonstrate consistent focus on neurophysiological markers of addiction, PTSD, and emotional processing. Recent work explores mindfulness-based interventions, neural mechanisms of reward processing, and the impact of social determinants on neurocognitive function. Studies frequently incorporate EEG/ERP methodologies to examine brain-behavior relationships.
