Dr. Joseph received his doctorate in Clinical Psychology from the University of Massachusetts in 1996. He completed postdoctoral training in developmental neuropsychology in the Department of Psychiatry at Cambridge Hospital/Harvard Medical School. Dr. Joseph has been a faculty member of the Department of Anatomy and Neurobiology since 2001.
Dr. Joseph does research on the neuropsychology and neurobiology of social disability in children with autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders. His current research focuses on the ways in which children attend to, perceive, and respond emotionally to information from faces, such as shifts of gaze and facial expressions of emotion. To study these questions, he uses computerized behavioral tests, eye tracking, psychophysiological measures, and functional magnetic neuroimaging.
Dr. Joseph teaches Human Growth and Development (GMS MH 708) for the Mental Health and Behavioral Medicine Program and gives lecture in the Autism and Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience seminars in the Anatomy and Neurobiology doctoral program. He is a member of the Anatomy and Neurobiology Faculty Appointments, Promotion and Development Committee and the Carnegie Initiative on the Doctorate Teaching Subcommittee.
