Gillian Starkey is an Associate Professor of Human Neuroscience at Goucher College. She completed her doctorate in Cognition and Cognitive Neuroscience at Vanderbilt University in 2014, where she was awarded a pre-doctoral fellowship from the Institute of Education Sciences. Before coming to Goucher, Dr. Starkey completed a post-doctoral research fellowship in educational neuroscience at Stanford University, and taught courses in cognitive development, neuroscience, and statistics at Stanford and San José State University. At Goucher, she teaches courses in human neuroscience and conducts electrophysiology research on the neural basis of children’s developing math skills.
Dr. Starkey’s research investigates the neural correlates of number cognition in adults and children. She is specifically interested in how changes in the structure and function of the brain relate to developments in children’s math ability. The goal of her research is to better understand how the brain supports and reflects developing math skills as children progress through elementary school, with a focus on children who are struggling to learn math.
