Chad Rogers

Chad Rogers is an Associate Professor of Psychology and Director of Neuroscience at Union College. His academic credentials include a Ph.D. in Cognitive Psychology from Washington University in St. Louis and dual undergraduate degrees from the University of Florida. He holds leadership positions within the Department of Psychology and the Center for Neuroscience, where he conducts research on auditory cognition in aging populations.

Dr. Rogers' research examines:

• Speech perception mechanisms under challenging conditions
• Cognitive control deficits in age-related hearing loss
• Neural correlates of auditory processing using neuroimaging techniques
• Interactions between sensory decline and cognitive aging

His work bridges cognitive psychology, neuroscience, and hearing science with practical implications for aging populations.

His publication trends show consistent focus on:

• Auditory neuroscience (60% of recent publications)
• Cognitive aging (25%)
• Methodological innovations in neuroimaging (15%)

with particular emphasis on fMRI applications in speech perception research.

Honors include:

• Stillman Prize for Faculty Excellence in Teaching

As Director of Neuroscience, he oversees research activities at Union College's Center for Neuroscience, facilitating interdisciplinary studies on cognitive hearing processes.
