The Cognitive and Functional Wellness Lab (Tracy L. Greer, Ph.D., MSCS, Director) aims to assess cognitive influences on health, with an emphasis on achieving patient-desired functional and psychosocial wellness. We examine the bidirectional relationship between depression and other chronic health conditions, and shared contributors (e.g., inflammation) and consequences (e.g., cognitive worsening and reduced quality of life). Primary research activities focus on depressive disorders, substance use disorders, and pain. We also examine the efficacy of targeted treatments, such as exercise and mindfulness, in individuals with depression and other chronic health conditions.
