Hi, I'm Linhao.

I am a fifth-year doctoral candidate in Human Development and Family Science at the University of Georgia, with an expected graduation date of May 2025. I work with Dr. Assaf Oshri  and Dr. Charles Geier at the Youth Development Institute. 

My research focuses on studying how child adversity influences youth development and psychopathology and how psychophysiological and neurological mechanisms impact these associations. 

I am particularly interested in how sleep can impact the parent-child relationship and risk and resilience behaviors.
