Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolCarrisa Cocuzza is a cognitive computational neuroscientist and postdoctoral fellow at Yale with nine years of research experience studying brain network mechanisms underlying cognition and psychopathology. She earned a PhD from Rutgers CMBN after an NYU master’s focused on clinical applications, and leverages computational modeling parameterized by biologically plausible features to test mechanistic predictions about attention, control, learning, and memory. Her work bridges basic network dynamics and clinical translation, aiming to illuminate how system-level brain processes map onto neurodevelopmental and affective disorders. At Yale’s Holmes Lab she now applies these quantitative approaches to psychotic and affective conditions, bringing together computational rigor and clinical insight to improve quality of life. An often-overlooked strength is her fluency in both model-driven theory and clinically informed study design, enabling work that is simultaneously mechanistic and translational.
