Phoebe Holz graduated from the University of Chicago in 2024 with a B.A. in Psychology and French. At UChicago, she worked primarily as a research assistant for the Memory and Perception in Schizophrenia (MAPS) lab under Dr. Molly Erickson investigating the neural mechanisms of cognition and perception in primary psychotic disorders using EEG and fMRI. Her senior honors thesis investigated spontaneous gamma frequency spectral activity as a potential biomarker for the cognitive symptoms of schizophrenia. At CORD, Phoebe is assisting on a project investigating the mechanisms by which transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) might enhance fear extinction learning in individuals with fear-based OCD under Dr. Ryan Jacoby. She is broadly interested in the use of biomarkers to better understand and tailor treatment for psychiatric disorders, and the use of digital tools to improve the accessibility of mental health treatments. After CORD she hopes to pursue her PhD in clinical psychology.
