Developmental Science

Developmental science is the study of how people change and grow throughout their lives, from infancy to old age. It explores physical, cognitive, emotional, and social development, aiming to understand the processes and factors that influence human growth. Researchers in this field examine how experiences, biology, and environment interact to shape abilities, behavior, and well-being over time. The goal is to improve practices in education, health, and social policy to support positive development at every stage of life.
