Research Interest
Dr. Jha's primary research interests include attention, working memory, and mindfulness training. However, there are key areas in which a collaboration with the SCCC would be fruitful as it relates to prevention and survivorship. For example, they are actively involved in a project with Miami-Dade Fire Rescue investigating the effectiveness of mindfulness training on firefighter resilience, which could relate to current SCCC work with firefighters.
