Background
Halie is a graduate student in the Brain and Cognitive Sciences program at MIT. She is interested in how early life experiences and environments impact brain development, particularly in the context of reading and language, and in turn what this means for children’s educational outcomes. She is excited to research how early experiences shape kids’ brains, and she hopes that we can use this knowledge to figure out the best ways to support each student.
