CURRENT RESEARCH TEAM
BRIDGET LYNCH
Research Assistant
My name is Bridget and I’m a senior psychology major with a double minor in mental health rehabilitation and applied mathematics. This is my second year in Dr. Peterson’s lab and I’m excited to learn as much as I can from her. Outside of the lab, you can find me working in admissions or volunteering in the Portland area. I am a member of ROTC and can’t wait to have a future helping those who put their lives on the line.
DANIELLE MCCARTHY
Research Assistant
I am a junior majoring in Neuroscience with a minor in Education. This is my third year in Dr. Peterson's research lab and I am interested in learning more about how relationships in our daily life affect the way we feel about ourselves and how we treat other people. Outside of the lab, I can be found at the rink, as I am on the Women's Ice Hockey team here at UNE. In the future, I am looking into going to chiropractic school.
ALEX DEVLIN
Research Assistant
I am a junior Psychology major with minors in Mental Health Rehabilitation and Health, Law, and Policy. This is my first year in Dr. Peterson's research lab, and I am interested in learning more about how our views of self affect our interpersonal relationships. Outside of the lab, I am also the TA for Abnormal Psychology, president of Music Appreciation Club, secretary for Psychology Club, and one of the fundraising chairs for Giving Tree Society. After undergrad, I hope to attend graduate school to ultimately become a licensed Clinical and Forensic Psychologist!
