Elise (Ellie) Breitfeld

I am an incoming postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, San Diego working with Dr. Bria Long. My research focuses on language development, specifically how babies and toddlers begin to learn the meanings of words in their native language.

I received my PhD in Developmental Psychology from the University of Wisconsin-Madison, advised by Dr. Jenny Saffran. Prior to graduate school, I recieved my B.A. in Psychology at Princeton University and completed my undergraduate research in Dr. Casey Lew-Williams's lab.
