Biography

Dr. Jamie Reilly joined the faculty at Temple University in 2014 where he currently serves as professor of communication sciences and disorders. He is a clinically licensed speech-language pathologist with expertise in progressive language disorders, psycholinguistics, natural language processing and neurorehabilitation. Jamie directs the Concepts & Cognition Lab at Temple, and he routinely co-authors research with students at all levels. The lab uses a variety of empirical methods (behavioral and physiological), including transcranial direct current brain stimulation, eyetracking, electroencephalography and functional magnetic resonance imaging.

As an undergraduate at Tulane University, Jamie studied Russian and anthropology. After a year spent teaching English in South Korea, he completed graduate degrees in speech-language-hearing (MA) and cognitive psychology (PhD) at Temple University. He then completed a postdoctoral fellowship in cognitive neuroscience at the University of Pennsylvania.

Jamie is an associate editor at the Journal of Neuropsychology and an editorial board member for the journals, Neuropsychologia and Neuropsychological Rehabilitation. He reviews for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) , National Science Foundation (NSF), and many international foundations. He has two dogs, Fancy and Lola.
