Research overview
Lab
Mission
Welcome to ‘The Auditory Brain and Cognitive Development Laboratory’ (ABCD
Lab). Our lab mission is to better understand the behavioral and brain
correlates of human sound processing (such as music and speech) in both typical
and atypical development, such as autism. Our multidisciplinary team
includes researchers and trainees from the basic and applied sciences,
including cognitive neuroscience, and clinical and developmental
psychology.
Current studies on the neuro- biological and
developmental foundations of:
- Basic pitch and time
perception
- Hierarchical (global vs local) auditory processing
- Speech (prosody)
perception and production
- Auditory-motor
integration
- Auditory learning /
brain plasticity
Populations studied:
- Typical developing
adults and children
- Individuals with
autism
- Individuals with
specialized training (musicians, dancers)
Methods used:
- Behavioral (and
clinical) measures
- Brain imaging methods
(structural and functional MRI)
