<p>About Me</p>
<h2>Who am I?</h2>
<br>
I am a Postdoctoral Research Fellow with Dr. Xiaosi Gu and the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.neurocpu.org/">Center for Computational Psychiatry</a> at the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://icahn.mssm.edu">Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai</a>. I earned my Ph.D. while working in the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://abigailmarsh.com/lab/">Laboratory on Social and Affective Neuroscience</a> at <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://georgetown.edu/">Georgetown University</a> under the mentorship of Dr. Abigail Marsh. I graduated from the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://usc.edu/">University of Southern California</a> with a Bachelor's Degree in both physics and psychology.<br><br>
I am also an avid social justice, environmental, and open science advocate. I have been involved with advocacy work for environmental sustainability and social justice on the local and national level. I strive to make science open, equitable, and accessible to all.
<br><br>
I'm always open to collaborate! Please feel free to contact me on the <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://mattermost.brainhack.org/brainhack/messages/@shawnrhoads">Brainhack Mattermost</a> or through any of the links below.

<p>What I Do</p>
<h2>What social factors impact human welfare?</h2>
<br>
I approach this question by studying the neurocomputational basis of human interpersonal perception, learning and decision-making in social contexts, and emotional experiences that are shared (i.e., interactions with others) or vicarious (i.e., affective empathy). I examine sources of individual variation in these phenomena relevant to mental health and socioemotional well-being.<br><br>
I pursue this line of work with two primary goals. The first is to achieve a mechanistic understanding of the factors that improve or impair the well-being of the self and others across multiple levels of analysis (e.g., neural, cognitive, behavioral, interpersonal, societal). The second is to translate this understanding for direct application in medicine and policy.<br><br>
Research methods include: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computational_cognition#Computational_modeling">computational modeling</a>, <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_magnetic_resonance_imaging">functional magnetic resonance imaging</a>, and <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocorticography">intracranial electroencephalography</a>

<h2>How can I assist?</h2>
<br>
I am generally always open to collaborating on research projects relevant to my expertise and interests. I am also available for consulting, speaking engagements, and workshops on various research topics and methods, including but not limited to (1) <b>computational modeling</b> (e.g., reinforcement learning, model/algorithm development, model simulations, model fitting), (2) <b>neuroimaging</b> (e.g., task paradigm development in PsychoPy, BIDS, pre-processing, univariate analyses, multivariate analyses, model-based fMRI), (3) <b>statistics</b>, (4) <b>machine learning</b>, (5) <b>programming in Python</b>, and (6) <b>open science practices</b> aimed at making computational training in neuroscience more accessible.<br><br>Please see research and training experience below for additional details and send any inquiries via email: shawn.rhoads(at)mssm(dot)edu
