Associate Professor, Northwestern University
Eileen Krantz Graham is an Associate Professor of Medical Social Sciences at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine. As a developmental psychologist, she studies individual differences factors that are associated with health outcomes in older adulthood. Her research program specifically focuses on how various psychosocial factors develop across the adult life span, including personality traits and social connection (e.g. The Big Five, loneliness) over the life course, and how these factors may influence physical health, onset of disease, cognitive aging, and mortality. Additionally, her work uses open science practices and the coordinated data analysis methodological framework in order to enhance the replicability and reproducibility of the lifespan developmental sciences.
