Department of Psychology

Jennifer Wagner (Assistant Professor) earned her Ph.D. in Psychology from Stanford University, studying numerical cognition in infants and young children. As a postdoctoral fellow at Boston Children’s Hospital, she continued her work on early development, looking at brain and behavioral measures of social cognition in a group of infants at risk for autism spectrum disorder. She will join the Department of Psychology in January 2013 where she will continue to use advanced methods for studying early social and cognitive processing in both typically-developing children and those who might be at risk for later developmental difficulties.
