About

I obtained my BA (honors) in Psychology at University of Calgary and completed my PhD in Developmental Psychology at the University of Alberta. I am currently a Professor in the Department of Pediatrics at the University of Alberta. My research is focused on cognitive and behavioural development of children, including children with neurodevelopmental difficulties. I also study the effectiveness of cognitive interventions for children. My research has been funded by the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), Kids Brain Health Network (KBHN), Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC), Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC), and Women and Children’s Health Research Institute (WCHRI).
