Jonathan Tory Toole is a third year PhD student
in the Clinical Psychology program here at NSU. He's been working with
Dr. Broderick in the clinical systems biology group at the Institute for
Neuro-Immune Medicine for just over two years. His main
responsibilities are utilizing his extensive background in clinical
psychology to add psychological constructs such as depression, anxiety,
and memory to the networks created by the systems biology group. The
goal of this endeavor is to understand the unique systems that underlie
diseases such as Gulf War Illness and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome from a
psychological point-of-view in order to better understand symptomatology
and potential clinical therapeutic treatment mechanisms. Tory is
originally from Georgia, and got his Bachelor degrees in Psychology and
Religion from the University of Georgia. He then went on to achieve his
Masters in General Psychology from New York University, where he did
work on fear memory reconsolidation and pain processing.
