The NUMMENMAA LAB at Turku PET Centre is dedicated to unraveling the neurochemical and functional mechanisms that support human emotions, as well as their dysfunction in various psychiatric and neurological disorders. The lab focuses on studying system-level biological circuits from the brain to the periphery, particularly the endogenous opioid, dopamine, and endocannabinoid systems.
The lab combines state-of-the-art nuclear medicine imaging with advanced signal analysis, large-scale neuroinformatics, and modern clinical psychology to measure the brain's molecular organization and function using PET and MRI. It also conducts behavioral research using eye tracking and mobile recording techniques. Led by Lauri Nummenmaa, the lab is funded by the European Research Council, Academy of Finland, and other institutions.

I am an associate professor at the Centre for Wellbeing Science within the University of Melbourne's Graduate School of Education. My research draws on multiple fields of inquiry, including health, positive, social, personality, and developmental psychology, and public health to address the question of thriving across the lifespan. I focus on understanding, measuring, and supporting wellbeing across the lifespan. I work with schools and workplaces to examine strategies for supporting wellbeing, and bridging gaps between research and practice.I have published 3 books, over 100 peer-reviewed articles and chapters, and the new, freely available Palgrave Handbook of Positive Education.
