![]() ![]() ![]() When we judge people for their moral or prosocial behaviors, do our perceptions of their beauty influence our evaluations? I am interested in understanding how morality and beauty interact to modulate decision-making. I enjoy all things virtual, philosophy, playing music, making videos, and surreal humor. in anthropological archaeology which I received from the University of Florida in 2016 studying how the built and unbuilt landscapes at the Belizean site of Cerro Maya shaped human perception while structuring human and non-human relationships over time. I owe my interdisciplinary approach and perspectives to my Ph.D. As the director of the Penn Neurology VR Laboratory, I currently work as a collaborator and software developer with the goal of bringing virtual and augmented reality approaches and experimental methods to neuroscience, psychology, anthropology, and medical researchers. ![]() To explore this, my research utilizes virtual reality and augmented reality tools to explore the complexities of human perception at ancient Maya sites in the Yucatan and Belize. He currently serves on the Boards of The College of Physicians of Philadelphia and has served on the boards of Haverford College, the Norris Square Neighborhood Project and the Associated Services for the Blind and Visually Impaired.ĬV for Anjan am interested in human perception of landscapes and architectural spaces and how they shape both cognitive and cultural processes in contemporary and archaeological contexts.

Through a combined genetic, genomic, physiological, and behavioral approaches, the Zhou lab has revealed novel insights into the pathogenic mechanisms of Rett Syndrome and CDKL5 disorder, identified robust and quantitative biomarkers, and has been aiming to develop innovative strategies to treat autism spectrum and neuropsychiatric disorders.Professor of Neurology, Psychology, and Chatterjee is a Professor of Neurology, Psychology, and Architecture and the founding Director of the Penn Center for Neuroaesthetics. In the past few years, he has led a research team that developed the first lines of mouse models recapitulating human genetic mutations found in Rett Syndrome and CDKL5 disorder, and engineered genetically modified mice to interrogate stress-related neuroepigenetics in the brain. His research focuses on understanding the pathogenic basis of autism spectrum disorders with known genetic causes and the epigenetic basis of neuropsychiatric disorders with environmental insults. , is a Professor of Genetics at the Perelman School of Medicine, and Director of the Preclinical Models Core at the Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Research Center (IDDRC) at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. ![]()
