Eli Neustadter

I was raised in New Rochelle, New York, and received a BSc in Human Development from Cornell University. After graduating college, I worked as a research assistant at the Brain and Behavior Laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania, investigating electrophysiological correlates of sensory processing in schizophrenia and the psychosis prodrome. Prior to matriculating medical school, I also received an MSc in Philosophy of Mental Disorder at King’s College London, where I focused primarily on conceptual analyses of health concepts and issues in psychiatric nosology. As a medical student at Yale, I served as a student representative on the Medical Student Education Committee in psychiatry, and conducted interdisciplinary research on issues of embodiment and selfhood in borderline personality disorder with Dr. Sarah Fineberg. My current interests include psychodynamic theory and practice, clinical phenomenology, and recovery-oriented approaches.
