Dr. Baldwin M Way's lab at Ohio State University investigates the relationship between passive social media use and mental health in adolescents. The lab focuses on understanding how observing others on social media, without direct interaction, affects young people's emotional wellbeing, particularly in varying stressful environments. By combining surveys and physiological measurements, the lab aims to uncover the biological processes linking social media habits and mental health outcomes.

Dr. Vladimir M. Sloutsky's lab focuses on understanding how young children develop their language skills and the ability to categorize information. Through various studies with children aged 4 to 9, the lab explores how exposure to language and statistical patterns influences semantic organization and comprehension. The research aims to provide insights that can help in diagnosing and treating developmental disabilities related to language and categorization skills.

Dr. Jasmeet Pannu Hayes runs a research lab at Ohio State University focused on understanding how traumatic brain injuries, particularly concussions, can increase the risk of developing Alzheimer's Disease and related dementias. The lab investigates the connection between genetic and epigenetic factors and brain changes that occur after a TBI, with the aim of identifying pathways that could lead to improved detection and intervention strategies for Alzheimer's disease.
