She is the director of the Risk and Resilience Lab and the University of Pennsylvania, an interdisciplinary lab which specializes in the effects of negative life experiences on mental health[2]. She previously held a faculty position at the Institute of Psychiatry. She specializes in the field of developmental psychopathology, with a particular focus on antisocial behavior in children.[3]
