Elise Sellars

Psychology (2021 cohort)

I am a DPhil student in the Oxford Risk and Resilience, Genes & Environment Research (oRANGE) lab, in the Department of Experimental Psychology. My doctoral work focuses on understanding the role of social relationships (e.g., with parents, siblings and peers) in children’s emotional and behavioural difficulties, using data from longitudinal birth cohorts and randomised controlled trials of parenting interventions.

I hold a BA (Hons) in Experimental Psychology and an MSc in Psychological Research, both from the University of Oxford. Before joining the oRANGE lab in 2021, I worked as research assistant in the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry group at the University of Oxford.
