About
Biography
I studied Occupational Therapy for my undergraduate and master's degrees in Iran and worked with children with developmental and learning disorders between 2005 and 2012. I moved to Germany and completed my PhD in Neuroscience in 2017 at the University of Tuebingen with summa cum laude. It was followed by a two-year postdoct in the same lab, and my second postdoc at Western University in Canada. I joined the School of Psychology at the University of Surrey in 2021. I am currently the director of the Learning Brain Lab.
Current roles

ResearchResearch interests
The primary research questions of the Learning Brain Lab are how children acquire knowledge and develop cognitive skills, and why some children experience difficulties in developing those skills. We mainly investigate numerical and mathematical cognition because it intersects with the development of several processes such as magnitude, executive functions, and language. We use a variety of behavioural designs such as longitudinal, interventional, and cross-cultural, and also neuroscientific methods such as functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), electroencephalography (EEG), and brain stimulation. For more information, please see our Learning Brain Lab.

Research projects
Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience - Numerical and mathematical cognition in early developmentWhile babies are born with the ability of non-symbolic numerical knowledge, our ancestors developed a symbolic language for numbers that became the basis of mathematical thinking. We might hypothesise that the acquisition of numerical knowledge follows a developmental trajectory from non-symbolic numerical knowledge (e.g., responding to the changing number of cartoon animals that are visually presented on the screen) during infancy and toddlerhood to symbolic numerical knowledge (e.g., associating visual symbol ‘2’ or auditory symbol ‘two’ to the quantity of ‘two things’). We are currently tracking the longitudinal changes in the neural and behavioural correlates of symbolic numerical knowledge acquisition in preschool children using fNIRS.
Educational Neuroscience - Mathematical learning in atypically developing childrenIndividuals with learning and developmental disorders usually reveal difficulties in learning and understanding mathematical concepts. It harms their career perspectives, mental health, and economic status and puts a burden on society. It is essential to understand the neurocognitive mechanisms of numerical and mathematical learning in those individuals to further develop brain-based educational interventions. We are currently investigating the neural and behavioural correlates of symbolic numerical knowledge acquisition in children at risk of dyscalculia (i.e., mathematical difficulties) and dyslexia (i.e., reading difficulties) using EEG.
Cross-cultural Neuroscience - The interplay of cultural and brain in mathematical developmentMost of our knowledge about mathematical learning and development comes from the WEIRD populations (Western, Educated, Industrialised, Rich, Democratic) that are generalised to other societies. However, cross-cultural psychology and anthropology have demonstrated that cross-cultural variability, values, educational systems, and environmental demands create differences in human cognition such as mathematics. Moreover, while we are born with a pre-wired neural system to face the world, our brains are shaped by culture, education, and environment. There has been little study of the cultural effects on mathematical education and learning, especially on the neural level. We are currently investigating cross-cultural differences in the neural and behavioural correlates of numerical and mathematical development between the UK, Iran, and South Africa using fNIRS and EEG.
