Please suggest that your best undergraduates consider the Developmental
Science graduate program at Georgetown. We offer a Ph.D. in Psychology
with concentrations in both Lifespan Cognitive Neuroscience and in Human
Development and Public Policy. The Lifespan Cognitive Neuroscience
track combines a focus on cognitive and developmental psychology with
neuroscience, maintaining ties with the Interdisciplinary Program in
Neuroscience at our adjacent Medical Center. Our Lifespan Cognitive
Neuroscience students are using behavioral and neuroimaging techniques
to study cognitive and neural development and aging, as well as their
pathologies.
Our program is producing a unique group of developmental scientists who
appreciate how lifespan cognitive neuroscience can inform, and be
informed by, public policy issues. Other features of our program
include its small size, which fosters close mentoring relationships, and
its cohesive graduate student community, with students collaborating
across laboratories. We offer full financial support.
