About Me
Hello there! I’m Francisco (Frankie) Nicolás Ramos, a clinical psychology researcher and the lab manager of the Depression Treatment Laboratory at the University of Southern California. I currently oversee the CBI clinical trial, a National Institutes of Mental Health–funded randomized clinical trial testing metaverse‑based, peer‑supported mental health interventions, which you can read more about here. My work spans data management and analysis, recruitment and mentorship of research assistants, and collaboration with partners at Vanderbilt University, Innerworld Inc., and other institutions.
Outside the lab, I contribute to the Measurement and Multilevel Modeling Lab at USC on science communication projects for psychologists and systematic reviews of measurement instruments. I also collaborate internationally with research groups in Spain on studies addressing mental health disorders and have presented my work at numerous conferences. I earned my B.A. in Psychology and Economics (Magna Cum Laude) from USC and am passionate about advancing mental health research and communicating science effectively. This site is a space to share more about my work, host my CV, and publish tutorials and posts on science communication.
