Michelle de Haan, Ph D, is Reader in Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience in the Institute of Child Health at University College London. Dr. de Haan’s research applies neuroimaging and neuropsychological methods to examine the neural correlates of typical and atypical cognitive and social development. She has published over 70 articles, books, and book chapters in this area, and is Associate Editor of the journal Developmental Science. Megan R. Gunnar, Ph D, is Regents Professor of Child Development in the Institute of Child Development at the University of Minnesota. Dr. Gunnar’s research focuses on stress biology and the role of early adversity in shaping stress, emotion, and cognitive functioning in the developing child. She has published over 150 articles, chapters, and edited volumes in this area.
