Dr. Kindt


I am reading about Dr. Kindt here(http://www.uva.nl/over-de-uva/organisatie/medewerkers/content/k/i/m.kindt/m.kindt.html)
I was watching an episode of NOVA, Memory Hackers, when I saw her discuss her work with people who have fear of specific things.
Dr. Kindt has published some papers that I want to read.
