OCD/Anxiety Disorders Research

I'm beginning to feel like this is an under-developed area in Canada in terms of research at several universities. I currently do research in this area, but it's at a hospital, not on a campus.

Can anyone name some schools off the top of their head IN THE U.S. that have faculty which study OCD/anxiety disorders? I am interested in applying to a few U.S. schools this year and I really have little scope of the 100s of schools in the U.S. compared to the 10s in Canada.

Thanks!

Off the top of my head


Stony Brook (Hajcak)
Boston U (Barlow)
Penn (Foa)
USF (Storch)
Delaware (Simons)

Sure there's many more, those are just the first ones that spring to mind.

Have you tried doing a search on PsycInfo?

check out Binghamton University too... I'm currently working as an undergrad RA in a lab that studies social phobia, OCD, and other anxiety disorders (under Dr. Meredith Coles). From what I hear, Temple University (Pennsylvania) also has an excellent anxiety disorders research center.

EDIT: that's in New York, just in case you haven't heard of it 🙂

Thanks for the responses so far... I can't tell you how many times I've cited Abramowitz...... man, that guy is prolific.

Nader Amir at the SDSU joint doctoral program has an anxiety clinic -- and I know he's got someone there working on OCD too.

Utah's clinical program does.

I totally understand. 😀 If you have the Insider's Guide, they have a list of programs by research area. It's probably not entirely accurate, but it may be a good starting point.

Good point! I'll check out the one we have on campus.
