Dr. Regina Lapate serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB), within the College of Letters & Science. She directs the LEAP Neuro Lab (Lapate Experimental Affective Psychophysiology and Neuroscience Laboratory), where her team investigates neural mechanisms of emotion-cognition interactions using multimodal methodologies including TMS, EEG, fMRI, and psychophysiology. Her educational trajectory includes a PhD from the University of Wisconsin-Madison (2015) under Dr. Richard Davidson, followed by an NIH postdoctoral fellowship at UC Berkeley (2016) with Dr. Mark D'Esposito. She co-edited the 2nd edition of The Nature of Emotion: Fundamental Questions in 2018. Dr. Lapate's research centers on emotional processing, cognitive control, and adaptive emotion regulation, with particular emphasis on temporal memory dynamics and prefrontal cortex function. Her lab employs causal inference approaches to explore how emotional states sculpt sensory processing and behavioral goals, aiming to uncover mechanisms that promote resilience against psychopathology. Recent work demonstrates how emotional context modulates temporal memory and action goal representations, revealing critical prefrontal circuitry involved in emotional adaptation. Her publication trends reveal deep integration of time perception with emotional processing, neurostimulation-based causal testing of prefrontal mechanisms, and translational applications for mood and anxiety disorders. The 2024-2025 publications particularly highlight anorexia nervosa symptomatology, temporal coding in emotion, and open-loop motor circuit dissociations. Scientific recognition includes: Hellman Fellowship (2024) Prestigious NIH grant for prefrontal mechanism research (2023) Regent’s Junior Faculty Award (2023) Dr. Lapate has secured substantial grant funding including an NIH award to elucidate prefrontal mechanisms of emotional processing and regulation.
