The Britton Lab

About Britton Lab

The Britton Lab studies contemplative, affective, and clinical neuroscience. Under Willoughby Britton, Ph.D., the lab researches the effects of contemplative practices on cognitive, emotional, and physiological aspects of affective disturbances in the interest of the cultivation of greater well-being. In addition to academic pursuits, the BrittonLab also serves as an epicenter for the contempative community at Brown University.
