@FUzefovsky
Associate professor, studying the biological basis of empathy in typical and atypical development
Check out our new paper on empathic disequillibrium development!
Excited to share our new study tracking how empathic disequilibrium develops in children aged 3–12! Led by @FUzefovsky and together with Dr Rebecca Waller (@EDENLabUPenn) and @nickjameswagner, we found that both forms of empathic disequilibrium are common across development.
Finally published! In a longitudinal study (N=250) we show that empathy development is a dynamic, bidirectional process. We found that children's cognitive empathy buffered personal distress for mothers at high risk for maltreatment. journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11… @Meidan_Adi @IdoShal

Check out our new study where we characterize groups of children who receive a late diagnosis of autism. This sheds light on possible biases/clinical challenges which impede timely diagnosis. When datascience and clinical insight meet!
So proud to be part of this study with the amazing Dan Aizenberg, @FUzefovsky, and Dr. Alal Eran leading the way.
Check this out! By the talented @DoriFloris and the EU-AIMS team
Thrilled to share our latest publication in @NatMentHealth 🚨 We explored the multimodal neural signature of face processing in autism using normative modeling and linked ICA in the EU-AIMS dataset. Read more here: nature.com/articles/s4422…
Check out our new paper! No better way to do research 😊
New paper led by Yael Dann in collaboration with bestie @FUzefovsky looking at paternal depressive symptoms and infants' early empathy responses (spoiler: not necessarily what you would expect). onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/ps…
Interested in biological markers of empathy? Completed your PhD and thinking of next steps? Come work with me through the Azrieli post-doc fellowship. Details here 👇 azrieli.smapply.io/prog/internati…
Happy to share our new paper on prenatal maternal cry processing, infants’ affective concern and negative emotionality. cambridge.org/core/journals/…
🚨Job Ad🚨 We're looking for a postdoc to join our MWAY project on anxiety and depression in autistic young people. The role is for someone with strong quantitative skills and a commitment to collaboration with autistic people. tinyurl.com/yzxe979m (grateful for RTs🙏)
