Toward Brighter Futures

Our mission is to rigorously integrate psychobiology and nutrition research to support child development around the world. We do this by asking how growing bodies and brains respond to their environment by studying the endocrine system, neurodevelopment, the immune system, nutrient metabolism, and behavior. We work with infants, children of all ages, pregnant people, and adult caregivers. Our values include curiosity, respect, justice, connection, play, and integrity.
