Phd in Developmental
Psychology since 2015. During my
doctoral studies I performed
longitudinal behavioral and
electroencephalographic studies in 3rd
grade children to examine neural
markers of dyslexia, reading gains
after training and changes in brain
activity associated with treatment
response. I am currently a
post-doctoral researcher in the
project ‘Characterization of
functional brain network organization
in dyslexia and development’. My focus
is on using a variety of
neuroscientific methods, such as graph
network analysis, to gain new insights
into brain changes underlying typical
and atypical acquisition of reading
skills.
RESUMEN SIMPOSIO INVITADO
New insights
on typical and atypical reading
development from brain and
intervention studies
Fluent reading is an
essential skill in our information
society and, thus, it is a primary
focus of education. However, a small
but significant percentage of children
diagnosed with developmental dyslexia
are unable to acquire typical levels
of reading abilities and require
specialized intervention. We introduce
the work from several European labs
aimed at advancing our understanding
of the brain and cognitive mechanisms
involved in reading acquisition and
dyslexia. Their focus varies from
fundamental aspects of learning to the
development of innovative
interventions.
