Biography

Sarah Lloyd-Fox leads multidisciplinary projects focusing on developmental trajectories in early cognitive brain development from pregnancy through early childhood. Her research aims to understand how family and environmental contexts, particularly those related to poverty and enriched multigenerational family support, influence early life development. Key aspects of her work include developing community-friendly, globally contextualized neuroimaging and behavioral toolkits, partnering with families and communities to optimize family-mediated interventions that bridge the transition from pre-natal to post-natal life, and creating resources for families and schools to enhance understanding of early development. Sarah is also the co-founder of the African Brain Cognitive Development Network (AfriBCD), which connects researchers and stakeholders interested in child development, health, and education across Africa and beyond, facilitating collaborative research in 17 African countries and various international partners. Additionally, she serves as the Course Organiser for the Developmental Psychology paper in the Department of Psychology at the University of Cambridge and holds the title of Bye-Fellow at Newnham College. Sarah is a UKRI Future Leaders Fellow.
