T.e.a.r group

The Texas Exposure and Anxiety Research (TEAR) Group is coordinated by Dr. Greg Muller in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Texas at Austin.

Our group primarily seeks to improve the dissemination and implementation of evidence-based psychotherapeutic interventions for individuals with anxiety, OCD, and trauma disorders.

In collaboration with Liberzon Lab at Texas A&M University, we are also working on a five-year D43 Fogarty Center/NIMH sponsored project:

"Building Research Capacity for Implementation of Outcomes Research and Evidence-Based Trauma Care After Mass Violence in Ukraine"
