Dr.Bruder directs the Psychophysiology Laboratory in the Cognitive Neuroscience Division of New York State Psychiatric Institute. His research uses electrophysiologic measures, such as quantitiative EEG and event-related brain potentials (ERPs), as well as cognitive tests to study neurocognitive function in patients with depressive, schizophrenic, or anxiety disorders.
He is the recipient of grants from the National Institute of Mental Health for studies in depressive disorders and schizophrenia. His research in depressive disorders has focused on the use of EEG, ERP, and cognitive measures to study right-left brain function and its relation to diagnostic subtypes and therapeutic response to antidepressant medications. He is also involved in electrophysiologic studies of regional brain activity in offspring of depressed patients who are at risk for depressive or anxiety disorders.
His NIMH-funded research in schizophrenia at the Lieber Center for Schizophrenia Research has focused on studies using brain ERP and cognitive measures of working memory, recognition memory, and right-left brain asymmetry. He has also studied the genetic basis of working memory abilities.
The Psychophysiology Laboratory is also one of the few sites measuring brain potentials to olfactory stimuli. He is Co-Investigator of NIMH-funded studies of olfaction in individuals with emerging psychosis during the prodromal period, and of emotional reactions to odors in depression.
Dr. Bruder is a member of the editorial board of the International Journal of Psychophysiology and a board member of the EEG and Clinical Neuroscience Society. He has served on multiple NIMH grant review groups and currently reviews grants for the Member Conflict Study Section of NIMH. He is also a member of the External Advisory Committee, Hunter SCORE Program, at Hunter College of the City University of New York.

| Studies are using electrophysiologic (EEG and event-brain related potential) and behavioral measures to study neurophysiologic, cognitive, and olfactory function in depressive disorders and schizophrenia.
