Professional history
Bliss-Moreau attended Boston College, where she received her Bachelor of Science in biology and psychology with honors in 2002, and her Ph.D. in psychology in 2008.[4] This is also where she met Lisa Feldman Barrett and worked under her, eventually running the Barrett Lab during her senior undergraduate year.[4] After completing her education at Boston College, she moved to the University of California, Davis and worked with David Amaral, training as a neurosurgeon while working in his lab.[4] She now runs her own lab, the Bliss-Moreau Lab which "conducts comparative and translational affective science using multimethod, multispecies approaches to understand the social and affective lives of humans and nonhuman animals."[5]
