Current Job Title: Research Assistant Professor
Current website: UW Laboratory for Auditory Neuroscience and Development (LAND) Lab
Favorite current project: I am working on a longitudinal study using magnetoencephalography to investigate auditory brain development in the first year of life in typical-hearing and hard-of-hearing infants. The very first participants in this study are now almost 5 years old and we recently received funding to bring them back into the lab for a follow-up visit. It has been really exciting to see them back in the lab!
