Aphasia Laboratory (Julius Fridriksson)
Work in the Aphasia Laboratory seeks to clarify the relationships between brain damage resulting from stroke and language impairment. Both advanced neuroimaging and behavioral techniques are employed.
Laboratories, Centers and Research Groups
Language Processing Laboratory (Allen Montgomery)
The Language Processing Laboratory seeks to examine the mechanisms involved in the human response to the communication signal (auditory or visual).
Literacy Development among Diverse Learners Lab (Lisa Fitton)
The Literacy Development among Diverse Learners Lab, directed by Lisa Fitton, is committed to the goal of improving educational outcomes for all children. They collect data and conduct research projects to better inform educational practice, but they also love to collaborate with experts on the ground to pool knowledge and improve education.
Neurolinguistics Laboratory (Dirk den Ouden)
The Neurolinguistics Lab studies the neural correlates of language processing and production. We are interested in the nature of language and linguistic representations, the extent to which language functions interact with other cognitive domains, the nature of language disorders and the role of neural plasticity in recovery from aphasia.
SC Family Experiences Lab (Jessie Klusek)
The Family Experiences Lab conducts research focused on autism, fragile X syndrome, and the fragile X premutation. Our work often adopts a family approach, where we study both children affected by neurodevelopmental disorders, as well as their parents.
SCROLL: SC Research on Language and Literacy Laboratory (Suzanne Adlof)
The South Carolina Research on Language & Literacy Lab (SCROLL) conducts research that improves the early identification of language and reading difficulties in children and aids in the development of effective interventions for language and reading difficulties.
Speech Neuroscience Lab (Roozbeh Behroozmand)
The mission of our lab is to provide an integrated approach to the understanding of speech production and motor control mechanisms in the human brain. The ultimate goal of our research is to promote knowledge that can lead to the development of novel methods for diagnosis and treatment of speech motor disorders in patients with neurological deficits.
