He is interested in social and affective processing in children and adults, using multimodal neuroimaging (EEG/ERPs, fMRI), neurostimulation (rTMS), and computational models of behavior. He received his PhD from Swinburne University in Melbourne, Australia, followed by a postdoctoral fellowship at West Virginia University in Morgantown, WV. He joined the Department of Psychology at GMU in 2006, and received tenure in 2011. https://csng.rbind.io/people/bill/ Mon, 20 Sep 2021 00:00:00 +0000 https://csng.rbind.io/people/bill/ Bill Kennedy is an Associate Professor (term) in the Department of Computational and Data Sciences in the College of Science at GMU. He is interested in integrating cognitive science and cognitive modeling of individual into computational social science up to the societal level. He builds cognitive and agent-based modeling (ABM) on topics such as integrated, long-term learning, the origins of conflict in East Africa, long-term migration due to climate change, impacts of social policy on stress felt by caregivers, and the immediate reactions of the population of a mega-city (New York) to a nuclear WMD (weapon of mass destruction). https://csng.rbind.io/people/eslam/ Sun, 19 Sep 2021 00:00:00 +0000 https://csng.rbind.io/people/eslam/ Eslam Hassan a PhD student in the Department of Psychology currently evaluating the effects of social isolation and loneliness during the pandemic.
