My research centers around learning deficits in children and adults identified as having a developmental language disorder. Current work focuses on building better ways to assess language disorders across the lifespan, how learning by these individuals may be different than for typical individuals, and how treatment methods for language disorders can be improved. We conduct research on all topics during the academic year and run a summer camp-style program for preschool children during the summer.
