Dr. Tsotsoros is a cognitive and developmental psychologist and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Human Development and Family Science, a Ryan Research Assistant Professor of Neuroscience, and an Affiliate Faculty in the Interdisciplinary Neuroscience Program at the University of Rhode Island. Dr. Tsotsoros is committed to research across the lifespan. Her work identifies mechanisms of cognition resulting from health and environmental factors. More specifically, Dr. Tsotsoros’ program of research strongly focuses on aging in the neurological, developmental, and psychophysiological correlates of cognition. Funded by the National Institute on Aging, she is working on identifying adverse childhood experiences’ role in brain health within the Rhode Island Latina population. She is leading original data collection to understand how adverse events—including experiences of abuse, neglect, and household dysfunction—impact the plasticity (e.g., neurotrophins) and neuropsychological performance (e.g., executive function) of the brain as we age.
