Assistant Professor, Psychology
The overarching goal of my research is to identify factors that increase vulnerability to symptoms and comorbidity of neurodevelopmental disorders. To explore these research questions, I combine measures of cognitive electrophysiology (i.e., EEG and ERP) with behavioral tasks in order to characterize neural correlates of cognitive and socioemotional outcomes during early childhood and inform targeted interventions.
