Clinical Associate Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioMy research program investigates the neurobiological basis of cognitive dysfunction across the lifespan, focusing on two critical populations: children with neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., ADHD) and elders with neurodegenerative conditions (e.g., Parkinson’s disease). By employing a highly interdisciplinary approach that integrates cognitive science, advanced functional neuroimaging, and computational modeling, I aim to delineate the neurocognitive processes governing both typical and atypical brain development and aging. The ultimate goal is to advance our understanding of the factors contributing to cognitive deficits and translate these findings into improved diagnostic tools and precision treatment strategies.

Wilson Captein, PhD
Clinical Assistant Professor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
BioDr. Wilson Captein is a fellowship-trained psychologist with Stanford Health Care. He is also a clinical associate professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Stanford University School of Medicine.
Dr. Captein specializes in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and exposure and response prevention (ERP). He adapts these therapies for patients with autism, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and related disorders. He also tailors these treatment modalities to patients in the LGBTQ+ community by focusing on the impact of minority stress. Across all treatment modalities, he emphasizes compassion-focused therapy that prioritizes the therapeutic relationship via transparency, genuineness, and a non-hierarchical, collaborative dynamic.
Dr. Captein’s research interests include sexual identity, sexual health, and alternative sexualities. He has presented to peers at national and international conferences, including annual meetings for the Society for Sex Therapy and Research, the Society for Personality and Social Psychology, and the Midwestern Psychological Association.
