Department of Special Education

Academic Background:
My work focuses upon elucidating the way developmental mechanisms drive changes in visual cognition and how those changes are refined by visual experience, both in typically developing children and in those diagnosed with neuro-developmental disorders. We use psychophysical behavioral tests to uncover the mechanisms underlying perceptual atypicalities that are increasingly invoked as contributory causes of the fundamental characteristics of autism.

Research Interests:
Perceptual and cognitive development, autism, visual deprivation from congenital cataracts
