- KEYNOTE SPEAKER -
Dr. Sarah Hill
Success in Science is a Path Paved With Self-doubt & Failure
Most people assume that the road to a successful research career is linear and paved with accolades and accomplishments. However, success is more often than not the result of resilience and openness to learning from mistakes. In this presentation, I will talk about my own career journey and how my successes have all been built on the shoulders of failure, reflection, and not being afraid to chase after ideas that others told me were a waste of time.
Dr. Sarah Hill is an award-winning research psychologist and professor with expertise in women, health, and sexual psychology.
At the intersection of evolutionary biology, social psychology, and
neuroscience, Dr. Hill’s research is aimed at understanding the role
that hormones, the immune system, and the environment environment play in relationship- and health- behaviors, especially in women.Dr. Hill’s research laboratories are located in the Department of Psychology at TCU in Fort Worth, Texas.
