Overview

As a clinical neuropsychologist, I am interested in brain-behavior relationships in a very broad sense. My research efforts focus on understanding the neural substrates of memory, attention, and language. I study changes in these brain functions that occur over the course of healthy aging and as the result of brain insults such as stroke and dementia. Understanding the brain systems responsible for both healthy and impaired functions increases our ability to develop and implement strategies to rehabilitate or compensate for these changes. Standardized neuropsychological tests as well as neuroimaging techniques are important tools that I regularly employ in my research. In my clinical practice, I work with people living with epilepsy, stroke, dementia, traumatic brain injuries, tumors, and other disorders affecting the central nervous system. I conduct neuropsychological evaluations of cognitive and psychosocial strengths and weaknesses, and help patients, families, and other healthcare providers understand, manage, and respond to changes in brain function.
