The Sturman Center for Human Development, in cooperation with the Department of
Psychology, fosters the study of the intellectual, emotional, social and physiological aspects of
the development of individuals.
The Sturman Center supports doctoral students presenting their work at international meetings,
allocates an annual scholarship for an excellent graduate student in psychology, and provides
small research grants to researchers of the Department of Psychology who got into a temporary
need that impedes their ability to conduct research. The center is also involved in the general
administration of the department and partly supports administrative assistance.

The Sturman Committee includes:

• Jonathan Huppert, PhD (Head of the Department)
• Iftah Yovel, PhD (Director of the Center)
• Anat Maril, PhD
• Ruth Mayo, PhD
