Research
Focus
- The goal of my research program is to map out the development and derailment of biological mechanisms underlying vocal behavior and spoken communication in early infancy, in order to better understand the origin of social impairments and communication disorders in individuals with autism. This will contribute to the development of automated instruments for diagnosis of ASD, and lead to improved strategies for early targeted intervention.
