Catherine Hartley

Consultant

Catherine A. Hartley, PhD, New York University

Catherine Hartley is an associate professor of psychology and neural science at New York University. Her research focuses on characterizing the changes in cognitive representations and computations that inform learning and decision-making across development, and how dynamic changes in brain circuits give rise to these processes.

A goal of her research is to understand the costs and benefits associated with how individuals learn and make decisions at different developmental stages, as well as how specific learning and decision-making biases contribute to psychological vulnerability or resilience. She sits on the board of the Society for Neuroeconomics, the Social Affective Neuroscience Society, and the Flux Society, and is a fellow of the Association for Psychological Science. She received her B.S. in symbolic systems from Stanford University, her Ph.D. in psychology from New York University, and conducted her postdoctoral training at the Sackler Institute for Developmental Psychobiology at Weill Cornell Medicine.

Timothy Strauman

Consultant

Tim Strauman, PhD, Duke University, tjstraum@duke.edu

Timothy J. Strauman is a professor and former chair of the Department of Psychology and Neuroscience at Duke University and also professor of psychiatry and behavioral sciences in the Duke University School of Medicine. His research interests focus on the psychological and neurobiological processes of self-regulation, conceptualized in terms of a cognitive/motivational perspective, as well as on the relation between self-regulation and affect and how such processes might contribute to psychopathology.

His lab's clinically focused research includes the development and validation of a new self-regulation - based therapy for depression, self-system therapy, and the use of neuroimaging techniques to examine the mechanisms of action of treatments for depression. He is a former president of the Academy of Psychological Clinical Science, a fellow of the Association for Psychological Science, a current member of the Board on Behavioral, Cognitive, and Sensory Sciences, and a founding fellow of the Academy of Cognitive Therapy. He has a Ph.D. in psychology from New York University.
