Personal profile
Research interests
I am interested in the manner in which typically developing children, children with developmental disabilities and children on the autism spectrum process and integrate sensory information from one or more sensory modalities. To this end I use behavioral and electrophysiological measurements within the context of developmental psychopathology, using a strength based approach to data interpretation and research design. In addition, I am also an expert diagnostician of children with autism, and in the use of visual strategies for treatment.
