My involvement with an amazing non-profit, Social Creatures, is one of many things I’m grateful for. Check out some of our achievements this year: www.thesocialcreatures.org/2024-annual-...
Happy New Year!! So thrilled to share this preprint (Kara Weisman, Lucy King, and I worked on this for 8+ yrs): "Beliefs about the development of mental life"

The Neuroscience of Risk and Development Laboratory loves postdocs!!! Please see the attached ad and email me if you have an interest in developing a T32 project alongside the work going on in the lab. Focus is developmental psychopathology, neuroimaging, and sleep!
Does anyone have an assignment they enjoy grading for developmental psych that has students engage with a (or multiple) scientific article(s)? I have tried many iterations of different assignments and want one I look forward to grading. Right now... not enjoying grading AI-written policy letters.
Brilliant scholar, but more importantly one of the nicest humans in academia. I am so grateful to have been his colleague - Clancy was instrumental to my success at NYU. He was genuinely excited to chat about new ideas and never missed an opportunity to provide support. He will be missed greatly
Our parents love tote bags!
We have plenty of evidence of how malnourishment impacts learning and cognitive development in children. No children should go to school hungry. Period. In some places, this sounds as radical leftist agenda. I wish it was just common sense.
