Background
The goal of Sara’s research is to characterize the neural systems that support language ability in typical development and communication disorders. She uses behavioral, neuroimaging, and machine-learning techniques to understand the neural bases of differences in how people learn, perceive, and produce oral language, with a particular focus on dyslexia.
