Biography
I am a Physician (M.D.) with residency training in General Psychiatry and have been conducting research at Yale Child Study Center for around over 7 years.
My research is focused on network modeling of psychiatric disorders, especially ASD, and its related comorbidities, like depression and anxiety.
Network Models are composed of interrelated "nodes", which represent variables under study and "edges", which connect them and represent their relationship. For example, items of a psychometric instrument could be the nodes of a network, connected by edges, whose thickness or "weight" correspond to partial correlation coefficients between them.

- The depression module (MDD, yellow items) was the least preserved (least similar across groups) as seen in the Right Panel plot. The depression items were scattered throughout the ASD network and were much less inter-connected than in the Gen. Pop. network. In contrast, the generalized anxiety module (GAD, orange) was the best-preserved module. Other modules in descending order of preservation included the Social Phobia (SP, blue), OCD (black/gray), Panic Disorder (PD, green) and Separation Anxiety (SEP, red) modules. It is noted that the preservation score is based on both the inter-item relationships within a module (internal) and with all other items (external).
