We are excited to announce our invited speaker for the 2024 Anderson-Myers Colloquium, Dr. Marjorie Rhodes, Professor of Psychology at New York University!

Date and time will be announced soon!

Dr. Rhodes's research examines how children learn and reason about the world around them. She is interested in understanding how children form categories of animals, everyday objects, and people, and how children make sense of human social behavior. Learn more about Dr. Rhodes

The Daniel R. Anderson and Jerome L. Myers Colloquium Series is funded with a generous donation by their students, Robert and Elizabeth Lorch, to honor the scholarship of these two UMass Amherst distinguished professors emeriti. The goal of the Anderson-Myers Colloquium Series is to bring in a prominent scholar whose research has revolutionized their field of study and is at the intersection of developmental and cognitive psychology.
