Her clinical interests are in populations on autism spectrum, and users of a variety of sign languages.
We study interaction of brain networks and environment in special populations (those on Autism Spectrum, users of sign languages, etc.), to clarify the mechanisms of adaptive communication and higher cognition.
Her clinical interests are in populations on autism spectrum, and users of sign languages (with cross-linguistic focus on American Sign Language, Croatian Sign Language, and Austrian Sign Language).
Keywords:
- Autism spectrum disorders, cognitive neuroscience, neurolinguistics
Research:
- Radar-based recognition of sign language
- Relationship between information-bearing visual signal and neural response
- Multi-scale oscillatory response in linguistic communication: predictive processing vs. entrainment
- Visual processing of social and numeric information in adults on autism spectrum
Subject Area:
- Computational Neuroscience of Communication
Dr. Evie Malaia studies dynamic brain network organization in both neurotypical and special populations (such as children on the autism spectrum, deaf users of sign languages, etc.) using neurophysiology, neuroimaging, computational modeling, and behavioral methods.
