Professor Adrian Raine

Adrian Raine studies antisocial behavior from neuroscience, developmental, and social perspectives. His laboratory focus on risk and protective factors for childhood conduct disorder, reactive and proactive aggression, adult antisocial personality disorder, homicide, and psychopathy. Their clinical neuroscience research program encompasses adults, adolescents, children, and toddlers, and they have interests in both male and female antisocial behavior. Techniques used include structural and functional brain imaging, autonomic and central nervous system psychophysiology, neuroendocrinology, neuropsychology, and x-ray fluorescence.

Adrian’s team take a biosocial perspective to our investigation of antisocial behavior in which their end-goal is to integrate social, psychological, and environmental processes with neurobiological approaches to better understand antisocial behavior. They are also interested in other clinical disorders including hyperactivity, alcohol and drug abuse, depression, PTSD, and anxiety which are comorbid with antisocial behavior
