Vanderbilt University (Kate Humphreys; @K_L_Humphreys; Clinical Psychology) Our lab Stress and Early Adversity Lab studies early life experiences, how those experiences predict subsequent functioning, and interventions to improve early caregiving. Given a new project on parent and child proximity, an ideal match would be someone interested in applying new technologies to study the caregiving ecology of infants and young children. We also study the perinatal period as well as both mothers' and young children’s neurobiology. Our lab would benefit from someone with strong programming skills and/or experience in MRI/fMRI. We hope to recruit 1 graduate student for Fall 2020. [https://apply.vanderbilt.edu/apply/].
