Our research program uses computational modeling, neuroimaging and behavioral experimentation to develop mechanistic explanations of behavior and insights into the relationship between children's behavior and neural activity. In addition to laboratory based experiments we also work in schools to develop interventions to improve children's mathematics performance. This multifaceted approach allows me to investigate questions in a manner that integrates neuroscience with developmental theory and imporant educational applications.
