| Dr. Temple's focus is in the fields of developmental
cognitive neuroscience and educational neuroscience. This includes
both an exploration of the development of neural mechanisms
underlying cognitive and emotional processes and how these
mechanisms undergo plasticity based on experience, education,
disordered development or disease, and /or remediation. This
overarching focus is being explored with a number of projects
including 1) normal and disordered literacy development and
the effect of remediation and education, 2) a newly developing
program in neuro-math-ed, the exploration of brain mechanisms
involved in mathematical processing - how they develop and
are impacted by educational strategies, 3) the effects of stress
and trauma on brain function and brain development, and 4)
the development and plasticity of the brain mechanisms underlying
theory of mind and the effects of culture and language on these brain mechanisms. |
