Research Assistant
Samantha is a third year undergraduate student at Barnard College majoring in Psychology and minoring in French. She was first introduced to the DAN Lab after taking Developmental Psychology with Dr. Nim Tottenham. She learned more about the lab after joining the Barnard Toddler Center, where she is currently a student teacher. This inspired her to pursue a research assistant position at the DAN Lab, where she hopes to continue exploring the fascinating field of developmental psychology and neuroscience. She is particularly interested in examining the relationship between prenatal and early post-natal exposure adversity on the development of cognitive skills.
