LandiLab Presents at the Society for the Neurobiology of Language 2020 Virtual Conference

Dan Kleinman, Nabin Koirala, Kelly Mahaffy & Meaghan Perdue presented posters at the Society for the Neurobiology of Language 2020 Virtual Conference. Check out the posters to learn about our recent findings about reading and neural markers of semantic processing (N400 ERP; Kleinman), white matter microstructure (Koirala), and our meta-analysis of fMRI studies of reading intervention (Perdue), with exploration of intervention duration effects (Mahaffy).

 

 

 

Meaghan Perdue wins 2020 Isabelle Y. Liberman Award

Congratulations graduate student, Meaghan Perdue on winning the 2020 Isabelle Y. Liberman Award!!

About the Isabelle Y. Liberman Award:

Isabelle Liberman, the late Professor of Educational Psychology at UConn, was a central figure in the cognitive science of reading.  Her discoveries on the key role of phonology in reading and dyslexia influenced a generation of researchers and changed the way that reading is taught to children, from an emphasis on visual recognition of print to an emphasis on the relation between letters and their sounds.  The Isabelle Liberman Award is intended to recognize and encourage young researchers who are investigating topics relating to Isabelle Liberman’s interests.  The award is given to a UConn graduate student based on a research paper, as well as past academic achievement and demonstrated potential for future professional accomplishments. Students from any academic department at the University of Connecticut are eligible. 

 

Perdue, M.V., Mednick, J., Pugh, K. & Landi, N. (in press). Gray matter structure is associated with reading skill in typically developing young readers. Cerebral Cortex.

We have a new publication in Cerebral Cortex!

Dr. Landi and a team led by graduate student, Meaghan Perdue, have recently published a paper titled “Gray matter structure is associated with reading skill in typically developing young readers”. Check it out below!
