Our lab is broadly interested in how infants&#8217; brains develop to support our experiences and understanding of other people. Towards this goal, we use a variety of methods including behavioral, computational, and neuroimaging in infants, children, and adults. We fully believe that science is improved by including thoughts, ideas, and interests from a variety of different perspectives &#8212; lived experiences, academic interests, and identity. Together we are always stronger and our science will always be better.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n  \n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n        \n          \n          \n  \n  \n    \n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div\n  class=\"cc--component-container cc--editorial-cards \"\n\n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  >\n  <div class=\"c--component c--editorial-cards\"\n    \n      >\n\n    \n  \n      <div class=\"cards-container\">\n      \n        <div class=\"card\">\n\n          \n                                      \n                \n<div class=\"f--field f--image\">\n\n    \n        <a href=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/hklab\/team\/\"  aria-label=\"Read more about Our Team\">\n  \n    \n    \n    \n    \n              \n      <img\n                            data-src=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/hklab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/478\/2025\/09\/Slide4-768x432.jpeg\"\n          data-srcset=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/hklab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/478\/2025\/09\/Slide4-1280x720.jpeg 1280w,https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/hklab\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/478\/2025\/09\/Slide4-768x432.jpeg 768w\"          data-sizes=\"(min-width:1024px) 23vw, (min-width:768px) 39vw, 83vw\"          class=\"lazyload\"\n        \n                  role=\"none\"\n        \n        \n                                      \/>\n\n    \n    \n  \n      <\/a>\n  \n\n<\/div>\n          \n          <div class=\"text-container\">\n                              \n<div class=\"f--field f--eyebrow\">\n\n    \n  <span>Science is Collaborative<\/span>\n\n\n<\/div>\n            \n                            <h3>\n                                      <a href=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/hklab\/team\/\" >\n                  \n                    Our Team\n\n                                      <\/a>\n                                  <\/h3>\n            \n                              \n<div class=\"f--field f--description\">\n\n    \n  <p>Our lab is new and growing.
