Mila Roozen is a PhD student studying biomedical data science at Groningen Institute for Evolutionary Life Sciences (GELIFES), University of Groningen, where she works within the research group led by Prof. Martien Kas at the Behavioral Neuroscience department. Her research focuses on genetic and neurobiological factors underlying social functioning, as well as on the measurement of social behavior using digital phenotyping methodologies. The main aim of her research is to find evolutionary and neurobiological factors underlying psychiatric disorders related to social functioning, such as autism spectrum disorders, mood disorders, and schizophrenia, and may ultimately improve the detection and treatment of such disorders. A second aim of her research is to discover novel objective and translatable markers of social dysfunction using digital phenotyping, which can aid in the research of this phenotype in both animal and humans.
