 **Topic: A social neuroscience approach towards computational psychiatry**

 Dr. Xiaosi Gu is one of the foremost researchers in the area of computational psychiatry. Her research examines the neural and computational mechanisms underlying human beliefs, emotions, decision making, and social interaction in both health and disease, through a synthesis of neuroscience, cognitive science, and behavioral economics. Her lab has also recently started to use human intracranial recording techniques to examine the neuroelectricl and neurochemical substrates of high order cognition.

 Currently on-going research projects in Dr. Gu's lab include: 1) drug and food craving; 2) impulsivity and compulsitivty; 3) social deficits across health and disorders, including autism spectrum disorders, personality disorders, and misophonia; 4) the neurochemical substrates of social interactions.
