Current Research

Dr. Schneider’s research focuses on how biological and environmental influences interact to impact a child’s path to learning and using language. To address these questions, her research takes a cross-disciplinary, multimodal approach by combining behavioral methods, electroencephalography (EEG), and functional/structural MRI across the fields of neuroscience, psychology, education, and communication sciences. By combining methods and theories from different fields, her research seeks to bridge the gap between basic and applied questions. She is the Director of the Language, Environment and NeuroDevelopment Lab (LEND).
