The Alba Language Neurobiology laboratory at UCSF is directed by Dr. Maria Luisa Gorno Tempini who is also the director of the UCSF Dyslexia Center and the co-director of the UCSF|UC Berkeley Schwab Center for Dyslexia and Cognitive Diversity. The Alba Lab resides within the UCSF Neurology Department division known as the Memory and Aging Center (MAC), Directed by Dr. Bruce Miller. The Alba team consists of clinicians, scientists, and engineers with expertise in behavioral neurology, cognitive neuroscience, speech-language pathology, neurodevelopment and advanced neuroimaging techniques. We study how language is organized into brain networks across the lifespan including primary progressive aphasia (PPA) which is a focus of the Alba lab. We also study other aspects of the brain, including adult and child dyslexia in our Dyslexia Center. We strive to mitigate the debilitating effects of developmental dyslexia while supporting the relative strengths of each individual. In the Dyslexia Center, we develop best practice protocols to assess and diagnose children and adults with dyslexia through a multidisciplinary and wholistic approach. Uniquely, we work closely with schools and educators to develop early interventions and educational strategies to help children with dyslexia thrive.
