ABOUT THE LAB

The Learning Brain Lab is a group of developmental cognitive neuroscientists working on the question “how can we better identify and treat children with developmental difficulties in order to improve academic and mental health outcomes?”

To answer this question, we use cognitive neuroscience tools to investigate brain function in children with common developmental difficulties. We work with many different young people including youth with reading difficulties, English as a second language, and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Our research leverages a multimodal approach combining across fMRI and network science, as well as across clinical, neuropsychological, and behavioral methods.
