Related Links Research Interests My primary responsibilities at the University of Kansas are in the central administration where I serve as Senior Vice Provost. Because of these commitments, I currently do not have an active research program. My area of expertise is best characterized as life span development with particular focus on at-risk populations. I have studied humans as young as those born 10 weeks prematurely and as old as women in their 90s. The impact of significant life events (such as sexual abuse, widowhood and birth trauma) and their effect on developmental outcome are of special interest.
