معرفی
David Carey is a Senior Lecturer at the School of Psychology and Sports Science, Bangor University, affiliated with the Institute of Cognitive Neuroscience. He holds a PhD and trained as a clinical neuropsychologist, with research focusing on behavioral and brain asymmetries including handedness, footedness, visual dominance, language lateralization, and their neural correlates. His work spans neuroimaging, clinical case studies, and large-scale meta-analyses.
Research Focus
Dr. Carey's research examines the relationship between behavioral asymmetries and brain organization, with emphasis on:
- Hemispheric specialization in language and sensory processing
- Clinical neuropsychology of apraxia and visually guided reaching
- Laterality measurement methodologies
- Neuroplasticity following surgical interventions
- Cross-modal integration in perception-action systems
Projects
- Can cerebral asymmetries be predicted from behaviour? (2019-2022): Investigated behavioral proxies for brain lateralization
- Can cerebral asymmetries be predicted from behaviour? (2019-2021): Developed assessment protocols for hemispheric specialization
Publication Trends
His 50+ publications demonstrate consistent focus on laterality phenomena, with recent work emphasizing fMRI validation, meta-analytic approaches, and clinical applications in epilepsy and language disorders. Research frequently intersects cognitive neuroscience, neuropsychology, and sports science.
