Lisa Welling (2008, PhD) Individual differences in face preferences
I completed my PhD in 2008 and worked as a postdoctoral researcher in Face Research Lab for a further year. My PhD was funded by the Canadian Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) and my postdoctoral position was funded by the British Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC). My research investigated the hormonal and psychological factors that predict variation in face preferences. When I left the Face Research Lab, I had published five first-authored papers, which secured me a position as a postdoctoral researcher at Penn State University.
