Co-supervision with Deborah Giaschi
I am PhD student in Cognitive Sciences at the Psychology Department, University of British Columbia. My research is on Dyslexia which is a reading disorder. I study functional connectivity of the brain and cognitive abilities in children with dyslexia.
Education
BA in English Literature from Shiraz University, 2012
