Summary
Logan Cummings is a postdoctoral research fellow at McLean Hospital/Harvard Medical School who applies fMRI and computational modeling to understand the developmental neurobiology of adolescent self-harm and suicidal behavior. With 12 years of research and clinical experience spanning clinical internships, research coordination, and evidence-based therapy delivery, he bridges neuroscience methods and hands-on treatment of youth with depression and self-injury. Trained at Florida International University (PhD/MS) and the University of Tampa (BA), he has authored multiple publications linking neurobiological function to psychopathology and built experimental tasks and code for fMRI studies early in his career. He brings rare combined expertise in data collection (fMRI, eye-tracking, physiology), task programming, and frontline clinical care, enabling translational work from mechanism to intervention. Based in Belmont, MA, he is driven to translate computational and neuroimaging insights into targeted clinical tools for adolescent mental health.
