Biography

I am currently a professor of cognitive neuroscience at the Department of Psychology, Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥ and the Vice Dean responsible for research at the Faculty of Education and Psychology, Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥.

Research interests

Developmental cognitive neuroscience including developmental trajectories related to reading difficulties and changes in brain activity during childhood. Specifically I have been studying development of auditory and speech perception, reading difficulties and perceptual learning. Understanding the development of speech perception and basic neural mechanisms of learning is important, for example, in creating efficient training tools for children with learning difficulties.

Within the CoE, the specific aim of the research team of psychology is to study longitudinally links between children's learning and mental wellbeing.

Projects

Project

Learning, aging and dyslexia - LeADy

In this project we will focus on dyslexia, or reading disability, how it manifests in older individuals, how it is associated with aging-related cognitive decline and will study in detail these processing using brain research methods.
Project

DETECT - Learning for detection and processing of disinformation

The project explores the skills of secondary school students to detect disinformation, related factors and develops pedagogical methods for detecting disinformation.
Project

EarlyMath - Pathways to math difficulties: A longitudinal study from birth to school-age

The EarlyMath project (2021-2026) studies children’s early development of mathematical skills, motivation and emotions in interaction with learning environments. We want to understand better why the learning of basic mathematical skills is challenging for
