Marc Joanisse is a Professor in the Department of Psychology at Western University. His research focuses on developmental dyslexia in children and the relationship between spoken language deficits and reading impairments. He utilizes neuroimaging techniques including EEG, fMRI, and DTI, to investigate how individuals recognize language in real time and how these abilities reflect neural and cognitive mechanisms. His lab also employs computational modeling to understand the biology of language development and the effects of experience and maturation on language learning. Joanisse has a keen interest in bilingualism and how cognitive mechanisms support language acquisition across different populations. With a strong academic background, he has been involved in significant longitudinal studies funded by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, further contributing to our understanding of language processing and development. His educational and research trajectories reflect a commitment to exploring the complexities of language learning and the neurological underpinnings of these processes.
Streams include Archaeology and Bioarchaeology, and Sociocultural Anthropology.
