Welcome to Dr. Ratna Kandala!
Ratna joined the EMIC lab in November 2024 as a postdoctoral researcher. She is applying state-of-the-art natural language processing (NLP) techniques to descriptions of momentary experience collected in daily life, so we can better understand how the language people use reflects and shapes emotional functioning and health.
