Prior to joining the faculty of Emory University in 2007, Bauer held faculty positions at the Institute of Child Development at the University of Minnesota (1989-2005) and at Duke University (2005-2007). While at the University of Minnesota, Bauer was awarded the Horace T. Morse University of Minnesota Alumni Association Award for Outstanding Contributions to Undergraduate Education (2002). Here, she put together a small team of intelligent and ambitious graduate and undergraduate students, motivated to chase further research on the origins of long-term memory and its theoretical shift from infancy to early childhood.

Bauer was awarded the American Psychological Association Distinguished Scientific Award for an Early Career Contribution to Psychology in the Developmental Area (1993) and the American Psychological Foundation Robert L. Fantz Award (1993). Her book Remembering the Times of Our Lives: Memory in Infancy and Beyond was named Book of the Year (2007) by the Cognitive Development Society. With Simona Ghetti, Bauer edited the volume Origins and Development of Recollection: Perspectives from Psychology and Neuroscience (2012). With Robyn Fivush, she edited The Wiley Handbook on the Development of Children's Memory (2014). Bauer has served as editor of the Journal of Cognition and Development (2005–2009) and the Society for Research in Child Development Monographs (2013–2018).

Bauer received her Bachelor of Sciences degree in Psychology at Indiana Central University in 1981. She went to graduate school at Miami University where she obtained her M.A. and Ph. D. in Experimental Developmental Psychology. In graduate school, Bauer was mentored by Cecilia Shore, who introduced her to Piaget's genetic epistemology. Cecilia's guidance educated her in applying constructivist theory to a variety of issues regarding language and cognition.

Patricia J. Bauer (born 1957) is Asa Griggs Candler Professor of Psychology at Emory University. She is known for her research in the field of cognitive development, with a specific focus on how children develop their earliest memories and how their memory is influenced by parents, peers, and the environment around them. Her research has explored the phenomenon of childhood amnesia and how social, cognitive, and neural changes relate to the development of autobiographical memory.
