Welcome back, everyone! We were so excited to see everyone at our first virtual lab meeting last week and can’t wait for this semester, beginning with getting ready to launch our Evolving Minds curriculum project in Somerville.
Emma Pitt was a longtime lab manager, and she had a hand in every project over the last 3 years. Emma was instrumental in the speciation storybook study, teacher PD study, and our research on anchoring phenomena. Emma started a PhD program at Northeastern University this fall!
