Gregory M. Sullivan, M.D. is an Assistant Professor of Clinical Psychiatry in the Department of Psychiatry at Columbia University. His areas of expertise include the diagnosis, treatment, and neurobiology of anxiety and mood disorders.
Dr. Sullivan received his undergraduate degree from the University of California, Berkeley, and in 1992 he received his medical doctorate from the College of Physicians & Surgeons at Columbia University. He remained at Columbia for residency training in psychiatry, completed a two-year NIH-sponsored research fellowship in anxiety and affective disorders, and, in 1999 he joined the faculty in the Department of Psychiatry. Dr. Sullivan has a particular interest in translational studies of anxiety and depressive disorders, incorporating the knowledge base of brain functioning identified through basic neuroscience research.
In 2003, Dr. Sullivan joined the research division of J. John Mann, M.D. in the Department of Neuroscience of the New York State Psychiatric Institute and Columbia University.
His studies focus on the use of positron emission tomography (PET) imaging for determination of key circuitry and neurochemistry underlying anxiety disorders, mood disorders, and comorbid depression and anxiety. Dr. Sullivan has authored or co-authored over 25 articles and chapters. He is a recipient of faculty research grants from the Anxiety Disorders Association of America, the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, the National Alliance for Research on Schizophrenia and Depression, and the Dana Foundation; and he was awarded K08 career award from the National Institute of Mental Health to pursue PET studies in panic disorder.
He supervises residents of Columbia University's psychiatry residency training program in the clinical care of patients, and he is director of their course on the neurobiological foundations of psychopharmacological treatments.
