Bio
I've been a psychologist at the University of Iowa since 2004. I recieved my Bachelor's degree from Cornell University in 1998, and in 2004 a Ph.D. in 2004 Brain and Cognitive Sciences from the University of Rochester. I worked with Michael Tanenhaus and Richard Aslin. I study language, development, perception and learning in normal and impaired individuals.Affiliations
I teach in the Psychology Department at the University of Iowa. Within the department, I am member of both the Developmental Science and Cognition and Perception training areas. I am also an active members of the University of Iowa Language Discussion Group and the Iowa Center for Developmental and Learning Sciences. My work is funded by the National Institute of Deafness and Communication Disorders (NIDCD).About this site
I maintain an active research program through my lab, the Mechanisms of Audio-Visual Categorization Lab (MACLab). You can find out more about the type of research I do there, as well as meet my students and collaborators. I hope that while you're there, you'll also learn about speech, language, cognition and development.I maintain a number of resources for the research communities, including KlattWorks an innovative speech synthesis tool, and the Consortium for Research on Infant Eye-Tracking (sorry it's still a little incomplete).
