Areas of Clinical Specialization:

Neuropsychological assessment of candidates for epilepsy surgery; Neuropsychological assessment of children with neurodevelopmental disorder (e.g., ADHD, Learning Disorders, Autistic Spectrum Disorders) or neurological conditions (e.g., Traumatic Brain Injury, Prematurity/Low Birth Weight, Cerebral Palsy).

Teaching Interests:

The Center for Neuropsychological Services (CNS) provides inpatient and outpatient neuropsychological assessment services for children and adults, including patients with neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Learning Disorders, Autistic Spectrum Disorders, Prematurity/Low Birth Weight, Genetic Disorders), neurological conditions (e.g., Epilepsy, Traumatic Brain Injury, Dementia, Parkinson’s), or psychiatric disorders. The clinical staff of CNS invite residents/fellows, medical students, and psychology interns and graduate students to contact us if interested in participating in research projects in our areas of interest. We also encourage residents/fellows who wish to have the opportunity to learn more about neuropsychological assessment through observation of evaluations. I also enjoy teaching the pediatric neuropsychological assessment seminar for the Child Psychiatry fellows and psychology interns and organizing the Neuroscience Seminar for the Child Psychiatry fellows.

Research Interests:

·       Neuropsychological and neuroimaging correlates (MR Volumetrics, MR Spectroscopy) of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and longitudinal trajectories of neuroimaging (UNM RAC and Brain and Behavioral Illness Signature Program grant funding)

·       Neuropsychological and neuroimaging outcomes of Pediatric Traumatic Brain Injury and effects of stimulant medication on recovery process from Pediatric TBI (NIH funded projects)

·       Neuropsychological and neuroimaging correlates of Juvenile Myotonic Dystrophy (UNM internal funding)

·       Neuropsychological and neuroimaging outcomes of cerebral palsy, and prematurity/low birth weight.

·       Neuropsychological outcome of epilepsy surgery (NIH ERSET Grant).

·       Neuropsychological effects of institutionalization of children in Russian orphanages and the possibilities of neuroplasticity/neurorehabilitation via deinstitutionalization.

·       Neurocognitive and neuroimaging outcomes of sports concussion (UNM RAC grant funding).
