The goal of my research is to understand what causes reading and language difficulties in children, how these difficulties can be identified and treated effectively, and how they relate to emotional health. I am a passionate advocate for the rapid translation of evidence-based knowledge into practice.
Over the last 25 years, I have held academic positions at the University of Western Australia, Curtin University, Oxford University, and Macquarie University. I am currently the Translational Director of the Macquarie University Centre of Reading, the Founding Director of the Macquarie University Reading Clinic, and Project Manager of MOTIf (Macquarie Online Test Interface; www.motif.org.au).
