Candice Odgers is a Professor of Psychological Science at the University of California Irvine and Co-Director of the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research Child, Brain and Development Program. Her research focuses on how early experiences and social inequalities influence child and adolescent development, with an emphasis on how new technologies, including mobile phones and web-based tools, can be leveraged to understand and improve the lives of young people. Her team has tracked adolescents’ mental health, device usage, and daily experiences via smartphones and wearable devices for the last decade and has developed new methods for capturing children’s lives in context.
