Biography:
Dr Krista Hyde's research aims at better understanding the behavioral and brain correlates of human complex sound processing (i.e. in music and speech) in both typical and atypical development.
Research themes:
-
Local and global auditory processing
-
Spectral and temporal processing
-
Cross-modal processing (i.e., auditory-motor, auditory-visual)
-
Brain plasticity / training studies
-
Brain connectivity studies
Populations studied (children and adults):
-
typical-development
-
specialized training (i.e. music and dance)
-
developmental disorders: autism spectrum disorders, dyslexia, tone-deafness
Methods used:
-
cognitive and psychophysical measures
-
structural (VBM, DTI, cortical thickness) and functional MRI measures
-
correlational analyses between brain and behavioral/ clinical measures
