Eveline Crone  

Eveline Crone is full professor of neurocognitive developmental psychology at Leiden University. She received her PhD in 2003 from the University of Amsterdam and spent 2 years as a post doctoral researcher at UC Davis before starting the Brain & Development laboratory in 2005.

 

Eveline’s research includes the psychological and neural processes involved in cognitive control and self-regulation. All of her work employs a developmental cognitive neuroscience approach to examine the relation between brain development and changes in psychological processes from birth to adulthood.

 

Her teaching includes seminars and classes related to developmental psychology and cognitive neuroscience.

 

Eveline has a secondary position as full professor in affective neurocognitive development in adolescence at the University of Amsterdam, facilitated by the Neurofederation.

Berna Güroğlu  

Berna is assistant professor focusing on the neural correlates of social relations in adolescence. Berna received her BA in mathematics at Koç University and MA in developmental psychology at Boğaziçi University in Istanbul, Turkey. In 2008 she received her PhD in developmental psychology from Radboud University Nijmegen. Her PhD project on ‘Development of dyadic peer relationships: Friendships and antipathies’ consisted of three cross-sectional and longitudinal studies examining dyadic peer relationships in school classes of early and mid-adolescents and a fourth study examining the neural correlates of friendships among a peer group in young adulthood using fMRI.

 

During her postdoctoral work, also in the Brain & Development Lab, she examined the neurocognitive development of social decision-making between ages 8-25 using economic exchange paradigms such as the Ultimatum Game and brain imaging techniques.
 
Her current research line relates to brain development and neural processes involved in social and emotional development across childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood. She is particularly interested in neural correlates of functioning in the context of dyadic peer relationships in adolescence.
