The second project will focus on children between first grade and fourth grade. The study will focus on those who have cochlear implants and factors relating to their reading ability and brain activity.

Introducing the Lab Manager, Cryss Padilla!

[Brain & Language Center, BL2 @BL2Neuro]

We have two exciting upcoming projects. We’ve teamed up with Gallaudet’s Literacy Gesture Lab to work on a project that will use thermal technology, which captures emotional states, to identify gesture anxiety arousal levels.

No, put ROGER DEMONTHENES O’KELLY on the $2 Bill @USTreasury. Why? That BLACK DEAF-BLIND LAWYER was rejected at all-deaf college BEFORE Helen graduated, because he was black. Regardless, he got TWO law degrees in 1909 and 1912. Educator, Lawyer, and Activist. #BlackLivesMatter

you will see a group of people signing to the song by Bruno Mars. The translation was done by me which I truly miss and liked to do. One new thing about BL2 is adapting and learning to work remotely. (4/5)
