Our lab news has been neglected lately, but that gives us more folks to congratulate! Big congrats to Dr. Peter Boddy, for successfully defending his PhD thesis in July 2020!

We’re thrilled that Nathan Lautz and Hannah Mechtenberg have joined the lab as PhD students! Welcome Nathan and Hannah!

Thanks to journalist Kim Krieger for the lovely piece on our new paper which gets at the perineal question — why, when you open the refrigerator door, is it so hard to keep in mind what you were looking for?

We are happy to announce the publication of “Abstraction and Concepts” – a special issue of Language, Cognition and Neuroscience, edited by Dr. Yee, and with contributions from Yee Lab member Charles Davis, and UConn professor Adam Sheya!

Congratulations to Jovana Pejovic, who successfully defended her PhD thesis and is moving on to a postdoctoral fellowship at the Lisbon Baby Lab! Well done Dr. Pejovic!

Congratulations to our recent graduates: Roisin Healy, Emma Dzialo, David Bachoy, Nicholas Semenza and Isabella Caban – we will miss you!

A big thanks to all the Yee lab members who presented or attended the 10th Annual University of Connecticut Language Fest!
