About

Jared is a 3rd-year Clinical Psychology PhD student specializing in Neuropsychology at Rosalind Franklin University of Medicine and Science. He received his BA in History and BFA in Music Performance from York University in Toronto. Jared has professional experience as a teacher and course designer for multiple international educational institutions, and he has contributed to research in several Neurology, Neuropsychology, and Neuroscience laboratories across North America. His current research interests center on the application of neuropsychology to neurosurgical contexts, particularly in pre-surgical assessment and post-surgical outcome monitoring. His recent work focuses on the use of functional MRI (fMRI) for presurgical language mapping in patients with epilepsy. More broadly, his research aims to integrate neuroimaging and neuropsychological assessment to help inform cognitive and behavioral interventions, including psychoeducation, cognitive rehabilitation, and cognitive training.
