Cognitive Development Society 2024 Preconference

We’re looking forward to seeing everyone at the Pasadena Convention Center on Thursday March 21, 2024 from 9am-12pm.

If you are interested in leading a roundtable, please see the Roundtable Interest Form page

Preconference Summary: Conducting developmental science at non-research intensive, or non-R1, institutions presents unique challenges (e.g., limited support personnel and increased non-research demands on faculty time). In spite of these challenges, research at these institutions is critical given their large role in recruiting the next generation of developmental scientists. This pre-conference workshop will build a long-term support network of developmental scientists at non-R1 institutions. A panel of established faculty will discuss strategies for success and breakout roundtable sessions will facilitate networking and brainstorming solutions to research and mentorship challenges. This pre-conference is an excellent fit both for those currently at non-R1 institutions and for trainees who are hoping to pursue careers outside of R1 environments.
