Stephanie Christina Balters
Postdoctoral Scholar, Psychiatry
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsStephanie Balters, Ph.D. is a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Interdisciplinary Brain Sciences Research (CIBSR) at Stanford University School of Medicine. Dr. Balters' research focus lies on unobtrusive human physiology sensing and subtle interventions in critical human-machine interactions. She is working on developing robust fNIRS systems that allow for interface-embedded in situ neurofeedback to enhance human task performance. Recently, her research focus has extended to elucidating the neural inter-brain signatures of human-human interaction with fNIRS hyperscanning (i.e., concurrent scanning of two brains).

Christina F. Chick
Instructor, Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences - Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsMy research examines the mechanistic contributions of sleep, cognition and affect to the onset and course of psychiatric disorders across the lifespan. I am particularly interested in adolescence as a period during which changes in circadian rhythm, sleep architecture, and sleep behavior co-occur with neuroendocrine development, psychosocial changes, and the onset of many psychiatric disorders. Given that sleep is a highly treatable target, increasing our understanding of the specific contributions of sleep to psychiatric symptom onset may facilitate the development of targeted interventions to mitigate the course of illness.
