My name is Madelyn Sandone, and I am a Senior Research Coordinator at Tufts University’s Center for Applied Brain and Cognitive Science, or CABCS. As a member of a highly interdisciplinary lab, I support research projects across a variety of domains, including cognitive psychology, neuromodulation, augmented and virtual reality, and exercise science.
I manage all aspects of experimental development and execution for a variety of projects, but I spend most of my time utilizing immersive VR systems to improve stress reactivity across emotional, cognitive, and physical domains.
Here’s a photo of me in the Virtual Reality Cave Automated Virtual Environment, where I spend all of my time, but we call it the CAVE, for short.
Many of the projects I manage and support revolve around stressing folks out and then seeing what happens. If you want to learn more about that work (and everything else I do at CABCS), click here!
“But what about when you’re not in the lab, Madelyn?” I hear you say. Click here to get to know me without the lab coat.
