Scott A. Langenecker studies the cognitive and neural underpinnings of mood disorders such as depression and bipolar disorder, focusing on how thinking patterns like rumination, emotion processing, and memory relate to brain function and treatment outcomes. His recent work also explores digital tools, such as smartphone typing patterns, as a way to passively track cognitive changes in people with mood disorders, and extends emotion-perception research to populations including people with HIV in Uganda and Zimbabwe. This research is relevant to students interested in clinical psychology, psychiatric neuroimaging, and digital mental health technologies.
