RESEARCHERS

BRANDI S. STUPICA, M.S.

I graduated from Otterbein College in 2006. In my free time I enjoy shopping at farmers' markets, gardening, cooking, and working on home improvement projects with my husband Aaron.

Since arriving at Maryland, I have led coding teams examining infant reactivity, infant emotion regulation, and maternal sensitivity.
