Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Lauren Luther's research focuses on understanding and quantifying negative symptoms in psychotic disorders, particularly schizophrenia, through digital phenotyping and the development of assessment tools. Her work investigates how objective measures, such as accelerometry, can capture behavioral indicators related to these symptoms, with implications for clinical trials. Luther also explores the neural correlates of social functioning in schizophrenia and examines the relationship between willingness to expend effort for rewards and the risk for psychosis conversion.

Her recent publications include work on validating accelerometry as a digital phenotyping measure for negative symptoms in schizophrenia and using machine learning to identify relevant digital phenotyping measures for psychotic disorders. She has also developed and validated the Negative Symptom Inventory-Psychosis Risk and studied how environmental contexts influence negative symptoms in individuals with schizophrenia and those at clinical high risk for psychosis. Luther has published research on shoulder proprioception, and her scholarly metrics include an h-index of 28 with over 3,000 citations across 169 publications.
