Biography:

I’m currently a second year graduate student at Language and Ageing Lab. I am interested in investigating the language changes as we age with both behavioral and neural methods.
The current project aims to investigate the relationship between age, executive function, and language production. The project will conduct a series of behavioral tasks among monolinguals and bi(or multi-)linguals with younger and older group. Taking account of the individual difference among bilinguals, the current project also examines  whether the social density of language usage affects the cognitive abilities with ageing.
