Description of Research

Interests include the cognitive neuroscience of human memory and learning and their application to real world settings. Basic research includes neuroimaging of memory processes using EEG, NIRS and fMRI. Basic research interests also include the identification of core cognitive processing deficits in dyslexic children and adult. Applied research includes forensic interviewing of children and the treatment of dyslexia. Included within my research laboratory is an experimental reading classroom in which dyslexic children are provided with a research based reading curriculum.
