Did you know that your pupils can indicate if you are prone to anxiety and depression? In this talk, Mary shares the common thought traps that make us susceptible to anxiety as well as her research on pupil dilation and its connection to fear and anxiety. Mary Fernandes is a Clinical Neuropsychology Ph.D. student researching how anxiety affects individuals and their relationships with others. She is mentored by Dr. Erin Tone, director of the Lab for the Study of Anxiety and Relationships (L-STAR). Mary earned a Bachelor’s in Psychology and Animal Science from the University of Maryland and is a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellow. Within the L-STAR lab, she uses behavioral, eye-tracking, and neuroimaging methods to study thought and behavior patterns associated with anxiety. One of her projects uses measures of pupil diameter to differentiate anxious response patterns from more healthy ones. Her presentations at the GSU 3-Minute-Thesis Competition and the American Psychological Association Psych-Science-in-3 competition, both garnered first place. Mary hopes to pursue a career in mental health policy to advocate for universal access to mental health and substance use services. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
