My research interests gravitate around bilingual language processing in both neuro-typical and neuro-atypical populations. In particular, I am interested in cross-linguistic language changes in bilingual individuals with Alzheimer's Disease. As a research assistant at PRIM, I explore (healthy) bilinguals' processing abilities of morphological violations. In my doctoral thesis, I seek to examine the extent to which bilingual individuals’ language processing profiles in their L1 and L2 can predict linguistic skills in a newly learnt language. My doctoral work mainly focuses on morphological violations processing.
