Looking forward to connecting with everyone and hearing about the latest in Canadian developmental psychology research! 🤝
I will be sharing work on the association between teens' peer experiences & their interpretations of vocal cues (co-authors: Peyton Nault & @danielnault.bsky.social), in a symposium on youth's interpretation of social signals chaired by @sdenglish.bsky.social (Weds @ 11am, Ste. Hélène I).
The @dseclab.bsky.social will be in Montreal this week for Development 2026! Riley Bonar, Emma Canning, & Katrina Mascherin will be presenting during Lightning Talks 6, on Weds @ 9am (Palais). Come by if you are interested in how teens attend to, interpret, & express emotions nonverbally!
If you're interested in emotion recognition or in learning more about neuromelanin, come say hi! 👋

I'll also be speaking in my symposium on "Novel Perspectives on Nonverbal Communication: Considering Contextual and Developmental Influences on the Expression and Recognition of Emotion" (featuring incredible work by Roza Kamiloğlu, Georgia Chronaki, & Marc Mehu!), on Sat (May 30 @ 4PM, room 130).
I'm presenting a flash talk version of this work during the "How the Environment Shapes Neurocognitive Development" Integrative Science Symposium today (Friday, May 29 at 4:15PM; room 113).
I'll be sharing my lab's hot-off-the-presses work on neuromelanin, an in-vivo neural marker of dopamine function, and its relationship with emotion recognition in youth at #APS2026 in Barcelona! 🧠
