James Blair is Chief of the Unit on Affective Cognitive Neuroscience in the Mood and Anxiety Disorders Program at National Institute for Mental Health. Following graduation he was awarded a Wellcome Trust Mental Health Research Fellowship that he held at the Medical Research Council Cognitive Development Unit for three years. Subsequently, he moved to the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience, University College London, where he helped form and co-lead the Developmental Disorders group. He joined the NIMH Intramural Research Program in 2002. Professor Blair’s primary research interest involves the neural mechanisms underlying the regulation of emotion in humans, and the neurobiology of anxiety disorder.
