Memory problems will change how you see the world...literally 👀

Across two new papers, we examined the eye movement patterns of younger adults, older adults, individuals with mild cognitive impairment, and amnesic cases.

Love this article! We need more real-life memory studies.
Here is an example study and review from our lab…child development focus.

I don’t remember when I first heard of Jane Goodall. She was there before I knew anything, showing me that you can do science without following the old rules. Thank you Jane, for creating a path through the forest.

“..we want students and colleagues––especially those working in areas that are under attack––to know that we believe the science you are doing is important and will make children’s lives better, and we urge you to keep on doing it.”

Unfortunately, the NSF grant that supports our work has been terminated. This is a setback, but our mission has not changed. We will continue to work hard on making cognitive science a more inclusive field. Stay tuned for upcoming events.

I am calling on all #devpsyc colleagues to condemn & speak out about the abduction of Rumeysa Ozturk by the US govt on March 25, 2025. She is a developmental psychology graduate.
