My research project
AI-guided neuroscientific approach to understand learning difficultiesMy project combines artificial intelligence and neuroscientific approaches to aid the understanding of the neurocognitive mechanisms of mathematics learning and development in children with dyslexia. Through a longitudinal study, we will examine changes in behavioural and brain responses of individuals with and without reading difficulties during mathematics and language processing tasks using simultaneous functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) and EEG and apply classification and multivariate pattern analyses (MVPA). Furthermore, a training study will be used to look at how specific training in calculation skills affects behaviour and neural processes.
