We're so proud of all the work that came out of the Child Study Center in 2022. Can't wait to see what 2023 holds!

We wanted to share this article from the New York Times, which discusses the increase in pediatric ER visits due to anger and irritability. This is exactly what we are trying to learn more about here at the Yale Affective Youth Lab, and you can help us make these important discoveries. If you have a child between 8 and 15, with or without irritability, they may be eligible to participate in our non-invasive study on the neural mechanisms of irritability - with compensation up to $640. Call, text, or email us at 203-646-3830 or affectiveyouth@yale.edu to learn more.
