The Laboratory of Early Experiences and Development (LEED) is directed by Dr. Johanna Bick, assistant professor in the Clinical and Developmental Behavioral Cognitive Neuroscience (DCBN) divisions of the psychology department at the University of Houston. LEED's work builds off a well established body of research showing that early adverse events are common, and when experienced in the first years of life, can have a lasting impact on cognitive, emotional, and social development.
