The N-CoDe lab, or the Neuroscience of Communication Development lab, is based in the Department of Psychology, Royal Holloway, University of London. The lab is directed by Dr. Saloni Krishnan.
The lab’s primary focus is identifying how the brains of those with childhood speech and language disorders (such as developmental language disorder, dyslexia, and stuttering) differ from those without these disorders. We want to use this knowledge to improve our understanding of these disorders, as well as improve clinical and educational tools and practice.
In our research, we use behavioural paradigms implemented online and in the lab, as well as structural and functional magnetic resonance imaging.
