Primary Advisor: Lisa Feldman Barrett
Secondary Advisors: James Russell, Jon Horvitz, Maya Tamir
Academic Interests: Under the advisement of Dr. Lisa Feldman Barrett, Eliza's primary area of research focuses on the dynamics of affective learning. Eliza is interested in unearthing the mechanisms by which individuals' affective lives differ. In particular, she is interested in how we learn about the affective value of stimuli in our environments, how individuals systematically differ in this learning, and how such learning relates to life-long affective and emotional reactivity.
