My summer lab team has been working hard these last few weeks attending events to share about who we are and recruit families for our study! They are doing great work and connecting with the local community!
On Thursday, some of our HARP Lab team members attended the Open House event at the Lowell Boys & Girls Clubs!  We met some great families, shared materials for the HAWK Study, hope to work with them soon. 😊

doi.org/10.1016/j.jecp.2024.… Early-life parent positive traits & adverse experiences moderated heritability of child sleep duration. Genetic influences on children’s duration were more prominent in riskier environments & positive environments may place a constraint on heritability.
