Dr. Barry Setlow is a Professor in the Departments of Psychiatry, Neuroscience, and Psychology. He is also a member of the Executive Committee for the University of Florida Center for Addiction Research and Education. Much of the research in Dr. Setlow’s laboratory concerns interactions between cognition, motivation, and addiction.
Dr. Setlow has mentored four University Scholar Students and has published papers including over 25 undergraduates (See list below). He has also partnered with CUR to recruit students, using our student opportunity database, for a project called Behavioral and neurobiological research on cognition and decision making in the context of aging and substance use.
Thank you for your contribution to undergraduate Research!
