Eilís O’Connell-Sussman is a Board-Certified Behavior Analyst (BCBA), New York State Licensed Behavior Analyst (LBA-NY), and certified special educator. She earned her master’s degree in autism and intellectual disabilities at Teachers College, Columbia University, and continued her education in applied behavior analysis (ABA) at the Florida Institute of Technology. She is currently a Ph.D. student in Endicott College’s ABA program under the advisement of Dr. Mary Jane Weiss. She is the Lead Behavior Specialist for Long Island University (LIU)- Center for Community Inclusion (CCI), Regional Partnership Center and has adjunct faculty positions at LIU-Post and Endicott College. Her research interests focus on applying the science of ABA to individuals with intellectual disabilities, specifically Down syndrome. She is interested in researching programs that address the Down syndrome phenotype and can shape early intervention protocols to support child development. Recently, she was awarded the Sidney W & Janet R. Bijou grant to study caregivers and infants with Down syndrome interactions to increase canonical babbling. Additional interests include culturally sensitive interventions and treatment outcomes related to the family as a whole and compassionate care skills for behavior analysts.
