What They Do
Our mission is to integrate and promote research in all aspects of childhood and in children’s biological, psychological, cognitive, and socio-emotional development and well-being, including the later expression of these processes as realised across the life-course. We have an exemplary record in innovative and impactful childhood research in Trinity, with TRiCC building on the foundational work of Trinity Children’s Research Centre (the CRC was established in 1996 as an initiative of the Schools of Psychology and Social Work and Social Policy). TRiCC develops the original CRC vision in promoting interdisciplinary research across Trinity Schools and Faculties.
