Rodney will join UC San Diego as a graduate student!

August 17, 2023

Rodney formerly served as the lab manager. As the lab manager, he oversaw general operations of the lab, and tackled research questions testing children's and adults' judgments of intergroup and interpersonal relationships.

Rodney will be pursuing a Ph.D. in Experimental Psychology at UC San Diego. As a graduate student, he will tackle questions related to the development of social cognition. More specifically, Rodney will investigate how humans develop to think about and understand social affiliations and behaviors. He will be funded by a National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship and UC San Diego's Jacobs Endowed Fellowship. 

Cheers, Rodney!
