معرفی
Nadine Gaab is an Associate Professor of Education at the Harvard Graduate School of Education and the Principal Investigator of the GaabLab. Her research focuses on the neurobiological underpinnings of language and literacy development from infancy through adolescence, with a strong emphasis on early identification of dyslexia and other learning disabilities. She integrates neuroimaging, longitudinal studies, and educational policy to translate neuroscience into practical tools for educators and clinicians.

Research Interests:
Dr. Gaab's work lies at the intersection of developmental cognitive neuroscience, educational policy, and clinical practice. Her lab investigates:
- Neural correlates of reading and language development
- Early identification of children at risk for dyslexia
- Environmental and genetic influences on literacy
- Development of screening tools and EdTech solutions
- Neuroimaging in infants and children (MRI, fMRI, DTI)
Research Trends:
Her recent publications (2022–2025) emphasize longitudinal neuroimaging, poverty-related neurodevelopmental risk, music-language links, and global collaborations to map early brain development and cognition. She is also deeply involved in policy translation and community outreach, working with schools, educators, and parent-led organizations to implement evidence-based literacy screening.
