The Biopsychosocial Development (BPSD) Lab is based in the psychology department at Toronto Metropolitan University. The lab is directed by Dr. Leslie Atkinson. We investigate the influences of attachment, attention, emotion regulation, genetics, and physiology on development, as well as the influence of development on these variables.
