This is a legacy webpage which has not been updated since 2007ResearchI moved to the Developmental Neurocognition Lab in October 2006. For the previous 8 years, I ran the Neurocognitive Development Unit at London's Institute of Child Health. The Neurocognitive Development Unit (NDU) had as its aims:
Research within the NDU focused on Williams syndrome, Down's syndrome, Autism, VCFS, and Fragile X syndrome, across face processing, speech processing, language, number, attention, using behavioural and electro-physiological measures, the latter in collaboration with the Centre for Brain and Cognitive Development, Birkbeck, University of London. In the case of Williams syndrome, we collaborated with geneticists at St. Mary's Hospital, University of Manchester and Oxford using animal and human models, and with facial dysmorphology experts at the Eastman Dental Institute, in an endeavour to understand the functions of the genes in the WS critical region. In particular, we studied partial deletion patients whose differing sized deletions help us to delineate the functions of genes. Our research was funded by a number of sources. We also studied typically developing infants and completed a longitudinal study (at 6 months and again at 10 months) of the relationship between mother/child interaction and a variety of cognitive domains (face processing, speech processing, the processing of human and physical causal events, and attention). The focus of my unit was always to understand progressive developmental trajectories and the underlying cognitive processes that support them. In several cases we demonstrated that even behaviours that fall "within the normal range" are sustained by different cognitive and brain processes from the normal trajectory. Much of this work now continues at the Developmental Neurocognition Lab. For on-going research projects, see here.
