معرفی
Christine SCHILTZ is a Full Professor in Cognitive Neuroscience at the University of Luxembourg's Faculty of Humanities, Education and Social Sciences, Department of Behavioural and Cognitive Sciences. Her work focuses on numerical cognition, spatial attention, face perception, and cognitive development, employing neuroimaging techniques such as EEG/MEG. She leads research initiatives addressing multilingual education challenges, particularly in diagnosing learning disorders in mathematics within Luxembourg's multicultural context. Her team develops innovative assessment tools like the LuxMatheTest to evaluate numerical competencies in multilingual children.
Her research integrates neuroscientific methods with educational applications, exploring how language and environment influence mathematical learning. Key projects include studying dyslexia's neural underpinnings, spatial coding in arithmetic, and the impact of bilingualism on numerical processing. Recent studies investigate socioeconomic factors affecting math education and the role of visual stimulation in understanding word and number recognition.
Publications highlight advancements in neuroimaging analysis (e.g., FPVS techniques), early childhood development, and educational policy. She collaborates internationally on large-scale assessments of cognitive abilities and contributes to evidence-based strategies for inclusive education systems. Her work bridges fundamental cognitive science with applied educational research, emphasizing practical solutions for multilingual learning environments.
