SUMMER 2024 LABS
The Intergroup Conflict and Social Change lab is directed by Dr. Rezarta Bilali.
This lab seeks to understand the influence of group identities on intergroup conflict and the psychological underpinnings of conflict narratives. It specifically focuses on group members' denial or acknowledgment of past collective violence, the factors that drive denial narratives, and strategies to address these narratives.
The CONNECT Lab is directed by Dr. Elise Cappella.

This lab’s long-term goal is to increase the likelihood that more young people will have the connections and opportunities they need to succeed in school and life.
The Global TIES Lab is co-directed by Dr. J. Lawrence Aber and Dr. Hirokazu Yoshikawa.
Global TIES for Children’s work leverages the science of human development to address the most central global challenges affecting children, leading efforts to support the most effective humanitarian and development aid at multiple levels in low-income and crisis-affected contexts.
