My research program is aimed at achieving a better understanding of normal and atypical neuropsychological development among children and teenagers. More specifically, it aims to:

  • Develop and validate assessment and intervention methods for children with neurodevelopmental disorders, in particular attention deficit and learning disorders (dyslexia, dyscalculia)
  • Develop and validate analytical and interpretation methods for neuropsychological data
  • Model cognitive processes by means of artificial neuronal networks.
