Professor Greenberg has extensive expertise in the study and treatment of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) and related neuropsychiatric conditions. He received his BA in Psychology from Amherst College, his PhD in Neurosciences from the University of California, San Diego, and his MD from the University of Miami. Prof. Greenberg trained in neurology at Columbia University and psychiatry at Johns Hopkins Hospital, where he has become a key figure in the field of OCD research. His clinical research primarily involves the development of non-invasive treatments, including Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) and deep brain stimulation for patients with intractable OCD. He has directed several NIH-funded studies investigating brain circuitry related to OCD and has played a pivotal role in the collaborative research environment at Brown University and associated hospitals. His aim is to enhance rehabilitation strategies that relieve suffering in individuals suffering from severe mental health conditions. Prof. Greenberg's work also includes examining the neurobiological basis of OCD through neuroimaging and cognitive assessments, revealing fundamental neuroanatomical correlations with the disorder's symptoms. He remains actively involved in clinical trials testing novel brain stimulation techniques to optimize treatment outcomes for chronic pain and PTSD as well.
