Ola Ozernov-Palchik, Ph.D., is a research scientist at the McGovern Institute for Brain Research at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), studying reading development and dyslexia and a lecturer at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Ola applies neuroimaging, psychoeducational, and cognitive methods to investigating the mechanisms of deficit and compensation in dyslexia.

The reciprocity between research and real-world practices is an important goal of her work.
