Greg Siegle, Ph.D

Dr. Siegle's research examines cognitive and neurophysiological aspects of depression through cognitive, physiological, and neuroimaging (fMRI) assessment, and through computational neural networks that loosely mimic processes related to information processing in depressed people. Stable characteristics associated with individual differences in depressive symptomatology such as rumination are a particular focus of this research.
