Profile
Lab Members
I recently joined the lab in summer of 2021, and I am so excited to be a part of this team! I am an alum of the CSD program at Syracuse, and it’s great to be back. I primarily work on the current tDCS study in the lab, and help with other projects as well.
Graduate Researcher
Communication Sciences and Disorders and Psychology
Class of 2021
I started helping out in the Aphasia Lab my sophomore year of college because I wanted to learn more about research in the field of speech-language pathology. During my time in lab, I have learned so much about aphasia and research! Now, my favorite part of lab is getting to work and connect with all of our participants.
Graduate Researcher
Communication Sciences and Disorders
Class of 2022
I am currently working on my masters degree in Speech Language Pathology, which helping in the lab inspired me to do! I have been a research assistant in the lab since 2019, and I am interested in the applications of tDCS.
Graduate Researcher
Communication Sciences and Disorders
Class of 2022
I got involved in the lab to get experience working with aphasia patients and adult populations. I plan to pursue a career as a Speech Language Pathologist in a medical setting.
Undergraduate Researcher
Biology & Neuroscience
Class of 2022
I am studying Biology and Neuroscience with plans to pursue a career in the medical field. I joined the aphasia lab to explore the different ways to improve aphasia treatments in stroke patients. In my free time I enjoy being outside and working at the hospital.
Undergraduate Researcher
Communication Sciences and Disorders and Neuroscience
Class of 2022
I joined the Aphasia Lab because I have always been passionate about neuroscience and wanted to obtain research experience that not only contributes to my academic career, but also my specific goals as a future speech-language pathologist. I believe this particular study is beneficial to me going into my field and I intend on applying these research findings going forward. I truly enjoy working with the team at the Aphasia Lab and I am excited to continue working in the lab throughout my academic journey at SU!
Undergraduate Researcher
Communication Sciences and Disorders
Class of 2023
I am currently an undergraduate student working toward a degree in speech language pathology. I got involved in the lab to gain research experience in the field of speech language pathology, and was inspired by the positive impact Dr. Riley’s research will have!
Undergraduate Researcher
Psychology & Neuroscience
Class of 2023
As a neuroscience major, I’m fascinated by the nervous system and its role in everyday tasks. I want to spread the idea of a conscious mental understanding through research and clinical study. Working in the Aphasia lab with Dr. Riley has helped me hone my research skills and understand neural research in more depth.
Undergraduate Researcher
Communication Sciences and Disorders
Class of 2023
I have a general interest in neuroscience and medical speech language pathology, specifically, the research supporting the practices used in clinical settings. I joined the Aphasia Lab to gain a first-hand look into the research process and I am so excited to continue learning!
Undergraduate Researcher
Neuroscience and Psychology
Class of 2024
With plans to pursue a career in medicine, I joined the Aphasia Lab to gain impactful research experience while also contributing toward improvements in treatment and recovery for persons with Aphasia. As an undergraduate researcher, I am excited to learn from the other members in the lab while building a strong academic background that will prepare me well to continue conducting research and providing medical care in the future.
