Our objectives
Our lab aims to explain how underlying cognitive and physiological processes regulate and contribute to the individual differences observed in critical quality-of-life outcomes following cochlear implantation. We do so by researching the dynamic interplay among the brain, body and environment, focusing on three areas of development:
- Emotional and behavioral regulation
- Conceptual thinking and reasoning
- Embodied visual attention during early language learning
