Nicholas Murphy, PhD

Dr. Murphy is an assistant professor of psychiatry and head of the Neural Oscillations and Modulations Lab within the Mood and Anxiety Disorders Program at Baylor College of Medicine. Dr. Murphy’s research is dedicated to precision neurophysiological biomarkers of mood and trauma-related disorders. His endeavors use linear and non-linear feature extraction methods to quantify dynamic activity within pre-frontal microcircuits; these provide an overview of information processing capacity and communication structure at a variety of temporal scales that describe the functional architecture of the brain and how it responds to treatment.
