Damien Fair, PA-C, Ph.D. Assistant Professor, Behavioral Neuroscience Assistant Professor, Psychiatry Assistant Scientist, Advanced Imaging Research Center Oregon Health & Science University 3181 S.W. Sam Jackson Park Road Portland, Oregon 97239 Phone: 503 418-0995 Email: Dr. Fair’s laboratory focuses on mechanisms and principles that underlie the developing brain. The majority of this work uses functional MRI and resting state functional connectivity MRI to assess typical and atypical populations. A second focus has become testing the feasibility of using various functional and structural MRI techniques in translational studies of developmental neuropsyciatric disorders (e.g., attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and autism). They are exploring ways to better characterize individual patients with these psychopathologies to help guide future diagnostic, therapeutic and genetic studies. Nathan A. Fox, Ph.D. Distinguished University Professor Department of Human Development University of Maryland 3304 Benjamin Building College Park, MD 20742 Phone: 301-405-2816 Email: Nathan A. Fox is a Distinguished University Professor in the Department of Human Development at the University of Maryland, College Park. His interests are in the biological bases of individual differences in infant temperament and the role of early experience as it affects brain and behavior in the realm of social and emotional competencies. His research has been continuously funded for the past 20 years by the National Institutes of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) and he received a MERIT award from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for his work on infant temperament. He currently receives funding from the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) for work on temperament and psychopathology, and for a study examining the effects of early social learning in infants. He was the PI of the NSF grant that brought the MRI to the UMCP campus and is on the executive board of the Maryland Neuroimaging Center. He is a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Association for Psychological Science.
