Penn Emotion Research Lab

The Penn Emotion Research Lab is a scientific team at the University of Pennsylvania that studies how people recognize and interpret emotions through facial expressions, voices, and body language. Their goal is to understand how emotional processing works in the brain, which can help in diagnosing and treating mental health conditions like depression, anxiety, and autism. They use experiments, brain imaging, and computer technology to explore these processes, ultimately aiming to improve emotional well-being and social functioning through research-based insights.
