Research Interests
The major areas of focus for Dr. Urošević's program of research are investigating neural and behavioral abnormalities that contribute to the etiology of bipolar disorders (BD) and identifying predictors of prospective illness course in BD across the lifespan. In her studies, she has used a variety of methodologies, from self-report, behavioral tasks, electroencephalography (EEG), functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), digital phenotyping/mHealth, to longitudinal study designs with prospective interview-based clinical assessments. Based on the behavioral approach system (BAS) dysregulation theoretical model of BD, she identified predictors of prospective bipolar symptoms/episodes in adults with BD. As part of her NIMH K01 Career Development Award, Dr. Urošević investigated developmental changes in reward/BAS and cognitive control system’s neurobehavioral functioning in a large sample of adolescents with BD and typically developing adolescents. More recently, Dr. Urošević expanded her research into areas of aging and mHealth. For example, she has examined steeper aging-related declines in these reward and cognitive control dimensions among older Veterans with BD compared to older Veterans without major mental disorders. Dr. Urošević also has active VA-funded research projects assessing prospective changes in social engagement, suicidality, and bipolar symptoms using digital phenotyping and machine-learning methods.
