LIPC Undergraduate Research Conference

On May 3rd, 2014 a consortium of Undergraduate Psychology Faculty from institutions across Long Island will be holding the 10th annual Long Island Psychology Conference at Molloy College.  
The Long Island Psychology Conference (LIPC) is a wonderful opportunity for undergraduate students to hear speakers geared toward an undergraduate population and gain experience presenting their research in a poster session format.
Please see the attached poster.
This year we have two talks scheduled.  In the morning Dr. Kestemberg and Prof. Lucente will discuss Autism Spectrum Disorder and the work Molloy Faculty are doing with the families involved in Music Therapy at the Rebecca Center.  In the second talk Dr. Engle-Friedman will discuss the work she is doing on Sleep Loss and Sleep Deprivation in her undergraduate research laboratory at Baruch College (the full schedule is available on the conference websitehttp://www.molloy.edu/LIPC2014).
