Research Interests
My research focuses on three lines: first, typical and atypical language and cognitive developments, including special populations with genetic deficits as people with Williams syndrome and people with Down syndrome; second, practical implications and developments on language and cognitive interventions, including people with language and cognitive impairments. By using neurological research methods, neural correlates with behavioural patterns of typical and atypical populations can be identified. Future research will recruit people with autism spectrum disorders and people with learning difficulties to expand different etyologies to explore the nature of language and cognitive deficits. Third, due to boost developments of technologies, possible interventions on language and cognition could be made with technologies such as virtual reality/augmented reality. Future research will include technologies to improve cognitive and linguistic abilities of people with special needs.
Research Center for Language Pathology and Developmental Neurosciences
This center is located in School of Foreign Languages of Hunan University and has been built up since July, 2019. The central theme of this center is to improve life quality and happiness of people with developmental disabilities, including but not limited to people with Williams syndrome, people with autism spectrum disorders, people with specific language impairments, and people with learning difficulties. This center devotes to conducting research on people with special needs to build up trajectories of atypical developments compared to typical developers and to developing intervention methods with technologies such as virtual reality and augmented reality. It is believed that brain plasticity makes intervention possible and potential in people with developmental disorders.
