Her current research Interests are: Child maltreatment; Neurobiological consequences of early life adversity; Parent-child relationships; Early parenting interventions; Psychobiology of parenting and attachment.

Currently her research involves children who experience early adversity, such as neglect, abuse, and disruptions in care, are at heightened risk for later problems across socioemotional, behavioral, and physical health domains. Dr. Bernard’s research investigates how early life stress influences children’s neurobiological and behavioral development and how optimal caregiving and preventative interventions may buffer at-risk children from problematic outcomes. In order to ask these translational questions, Dr. Bernard integrates ideas and methods across fields of developmental psychology, neurobiology, and prevention science.

In an effort to understand how chronically stressful conditions in early life “get under the skin,” Dr. Bernard examines multiple biomarkers of early adversity, such as HPA axis regulation (i.e., diurnal cortisol production) and cellular aging (i.e., telomere shortening). Even in the face of early adversity, some children show remarkable resilience. Responsive parenting may serve as a protective factor for these children, buffering them from the physiological changes associated with early adversity. Dr. Bernard combines methods of behavioral observation and psychophysiology (e.g., event-related potentials) to examine specific aspects of parental behavior (e.g., sensitivity to distress, parent-child synchrony) that appear to play a critical role in early childhood. Taken together, these research efforts aim to inform models of risk and resilience following early life stress, as well as enhance efforts to tailor parenting interventions for children at risk.\n
