Undergrad Presents at TCAC 2024

Sep 12, 2024. Joseph Kannala presents his research poster at the Thompson Center Autism Conference.

We are very proud of our undergraduate researcher Joseph Kannala and his poster presentation at the Thompson Center Autism Conference! Joseph is an undergraduate researcher from St. Louis University who collaborated with the CBrA lab over the summer on a novel research project. He used data from our lab’s MISLEAD study to assess how higher cognitive functions impact deception detection in neurodiverse young adults. Congrats Joseph!

MoLA 2024

The CBrA Lab was thrilled to have our program coordinator, Paula Argueta, present a poster at the Meeting on Language in Autism (MoLA) 2024 conference! Paula worked with co-coordinator Lucas Martin and postdoctoral researcher Elizabeth Valles-Capetillo on the poster titled “The cognitive and neural correlates of reading comprehension in autistic and neurotypical children”. The poster used data from our lab’s BrainREAD study and looked at the relationship between various cognitive abilities, brain areas, and reading performance.
