Welcome to the Clinical Affective Neuroscience & Development Lab (CANDLab) directed by Dr. Dylan Gee. Our lab studies the neural mechanisms underlying the dynamic changes that occur in emotional learning and behavior during childhood and adolescence, and how they relate to early environments, stress and trauma, and risk for mental health disorders. We use behavioral, psychophysiological, and neuroimaging methods to understand the developing brain and behavior with the goal to promote youth mental health and more effectively treat anxiety and stress-related disorders that emerge during development.

We are based at Yale and conduct research in the Department of Psychology and at BrainWorks. We are affiliated with the Wu Tsai Institute and Center for Brain & Mind Health.

If you are interested in participating in one of our studies for yourself (18-30 years old) or for your child(ren) (6-17 years old), please call us at (203) 432-1316 or email us at candlab@yale.edu.
