Professional Bio

LinkedIn

Mark is an Associate Professor within The MARCS Institute for Brain, Behaviour and Development at Western Sydney University. His research encompasses cognitive, neuroscientific, and developmental aspects of language learning and use, including bilingualism. He is at the forefront of research exploring the potential benefits of foreign language training in older adults to promote healthy brain function, counteract age-related cognitive decline, and halt the progression of neurodegenerative disease (e.g., dementia). His expertise concerns the processing of speech, and how language experience interacts with cognitive abilities to determine performance under different listening conditions and in different populations, including clinical populations (e.g., autism). He also uses computational linguistic techniques to predict mental status from language use patterns.
