Welcome to the NTU Youth Affective Neuroscience Lab

Advancing behavioral and neural research on emotion, cognition, and mental health in adolescents.

About the Lab

The Youth Affective Neuroscience Lab is led by Dr. Lizhu Luo, an Assistant Professor in Psychology at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore. We conduct interdisciplinary research in the fields of psychology, neuroscience, and psychopathology. Our research employs psychological and neuroimaging methods, primarily fMRI, to investigate the behavioural and neural mechanisms of youth psychopathology, focusing specifically on the dysfunctions in emotional and cognitive processing associated with youth depression. Our ultimate goal is to facilitate practical applications and transformations based on our findings.
