In this week’s Scientist Highlights, we feature Ellen Terry, PhD, who became a University of Florida Center for Advancing Minority Pain & Aging Science (UF CAMPAS) RCMAR Scientist in 2018. Dr. Terry’s research experiences involve using psychophysiological assessment techniques (e.g., electrocardiography, skin conductance, electromyography) to investigate the influence of emotion on pain and nociceptive processing in various clinical (e.g., fibromyalgia, major depressive disorder) and healthy pain-free populations, as well as, investigating how psychosocial variables (e.g., pain catastrophizing, negative affect, anxiety sensitivity) alter pain processing.
