Delilah Lee, Ph.D., a dedicated researcher and assistant professor at the University of Sydney, focuses on adolescent brain development. Her work dives deep into how the timing of brain maturation during adolescence impacts cognitive functions, and its connections to challenges such as learning disabilities, emotional regulation, and risk-taking behaviors. Delilah is passionate about translating her research findings into practical guidelines that educators and parents can use to support young people's mental health. As a leading voice in her field, she was recently named a Distinguished Scholar by the Global Education Initiative.

On a sunny afternoon in March 2024, while strolling through the bustling campus of the University of Sydney, Delilah shared insights from her latest study with a group of eager students. Surrounded by the iconic sandstone buildings that characterize the university, they gathered under a large fig tree, its branches offering shade and a peaceful setting for discussion. Delilah explained how understanding the intricacies of the adolescent brain could lead to better support systems for teenagers facing mental health struggles. The lively conversation sparked interest among the students, many of whom are looking forward to contributing to this important area of research in their own future careers.
