The session will be led by Daniel Seichepine, Ph.D., who has taught psychology and neuropsychology at UNH Manchester for seven years. Since joining the faculty, his passion for the subject has been a beacon of inspiration for students.

His current research examines the long-term effects of repetitive sports-related mild traumatic brain injuries on cognition, mood and behavior. Central to the learning experience, Seichepine actively involves his undergraduate students in research—several of whom have had their findings published. He has been featured on local news outlets to talk about a variety of neurological conditions, from dementia to concussions to addiction. Seichepine was awarded UNH Manchester’s 2018 Excellence in Teaching Award as well as the 2018 New Investigator Award from the International Society for CNS Clinical Trials and Methodology.
What do you like best about your job?
DS: My favorite part of my job is when I have the opportunity to work one-on-one with students or in small groups. This usually occurs during research or in small study sessions for my classes (particularly statistics!). In these sessions, I enjoy getting to know students on a more personal level.
What is your favorite UNH Manchester memory?
DS: Being awarded the 2018 Excellence in Teaching award was special for me.
Tell us your favorite:

- New Hampshire destination: Clark’s Trading Post, Santa’s Village and Story Land. We have three little kids and seeing the joy on their faces at these places is something I will always cherish.
- Book: This is a tough one, but if I had to pick one I would say The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway.
