Welcome to the Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory at Florida International University (FIU), Miami, directed by Dr. Anthony Dick. The laboratory conducts leading research on how children\u2019s brains develop as they learn language<\/strong> and problem solving skills (i.e., executive function)<\/strong>. We use safe and non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to learn about brain development. Our research has been supported by grants from the NIH (R01MH112588<\/strong>; R01DK119814<\/strong>; U01DA041156; R01HD098152<\/strong>) and from the National Science Foundation (NSF2028680<\/strong>), and our findings are published in major scientific journals and help to inform educational and mental health policy. Please use the links above to navigate the site!<\/p>\n

The lab is accepting students for Fall 2027<\/strong>\u00a0to conduct research in brain development of speech\/language<\/strong> and\/or executive function<\/strong> in early childhood and adolescence. Our current major projects examine development in children (ages 4-7-years) with and without ADHD (in Project AHEAD), and in adolescents (9-early adulthood) using the Adolescent Brain and Cognitive Development (ABCD) data.<\/p>\n\n\n

Welcome to the Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory at Florida International University (FIU), Miami, directed by Dr. Anthony Dick. The laboratory conducts leading research on how children\u2019s brains develop as they learn language and problem solving skills (i.e., executive function). We use safe and non-invasive magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to learn about brain development.
