Biography
Marc Schulz (Program Director) (B.A. Amherst College, 1984; Ph.D. University of California at Berkeley, 1994) is a clinical psychologist. The main focus of his scholarship is on emotion and relationship dynamics in the context of adult development. He has pursued these interests through a program of research focused in three complementary areas: (1) the implications for health and well-being of the strategies that individuals use to regulate their emotions; (2) the determinants and sequelae of close relationship functioning; and (3) understanding inter-generational influences on health and behavior. He is the Associate Director of the Harvard Study of Adult Development, an 8-decade old longitudinal study of individuals and families. He is an author of numerous publications and a co-editor of two books.
