Marlou Kooiker

Marlou Kooiker is a researcher in the Neurosciences department at Erasmus MC, focusing on cerebral visual impairment (CVI) and its intersections with developmental disorders. Her work combines neuropsychological assessment with eye-tracking technology to explore visual attention mechanisms in children.

• Current Researcher at Erasmus MC Neurosciences
• Specializes in CVI, ADHD, and dyslexia screening
• Develops gaze-based visual search tasks for pediatric assessment

Research Interests
Dr. Kooiker's work centers on understanding visual processing challenges in preschool children with CVI, particularly through twin studies and parent-reported behavioral analysis. Her research bridges neuroscience, developmental psychology, and clinical diagnostics.

Publication Trends
Recent publications (2025) demonstrate her focus on creating standardized screening tools for CVI-related visual difficulties, with methodological emphasis on eye-tracking analysis and visual search paradigms. Collaborations span pediatric neuropsychology and neurodevelopmental disorder research.
