Dr Dennis Golm is an Associate Professor in Psychology at the 九色视频.

His main research interests lie within the field of developmental psychopathology. He is interested in the mechanisms through which early risk factors, especially adverse childhood experiences such as institutional deprivation and childhood maltreatment in general, contribute to the emergence of mental health problems later in life. He is especially interested in biological markers of early adversity.

He teaches lectures in developmental and clinical psychology, and in developmental psychopathology. He leads the optional third year undergraduate module 鈥淐hildhood maltreatment and mental health鈥.

He is the School and Young People Organisation Liaison for the School of Psychology. Part of this role involves the arrangement of partnerships with schools for research and outreach. He further co-leads the outreach project NeuroKids. The project educates young children about the brain through educational videos and school workshops.
