Biography

Dr. Diaz-Asper is a cognitive neuropsychologist by training, with a background and interest in teaching about the brain and behavior and conducting clinical research. Prior to coming to Marymount University, she worked both as a clinician and researcher, completing two different post-doctoral internships, at Johns Hopkins Hospital and the National Institutes of Mental Health. During this time, she conducted neuropsychological evaluations of cognitively-impaired adults, and also designed and implemented a number of research studies.

Most recently, her research has focused on applying computational methods like natural language processing and machine learning to the speech of older people to predict cognitive decline and dementia. She has authored several articles and received grant funding from the National Institutes of Health and Rotary USA’s CART Fund for this work.

Psychology

Academic Credentials

B.S., Kutztown University
Ph.D., University of Connecticut

Biography

Dr. Lopresti-Goodman joined the Marymount community in the fall of 2009.

In addition to teaching undergraduate psychology classes and working with Honors students on campus, she has led four study abroad programs to primate sanctuaries in Kenya and Spain, where students learned how to conduct naturalistic observations of chimpanzees.

Dr. Lopresti-Goodman also actively engages in research. Currently, her work is aimed at understanding the enduring negative impact that confinement, social isolation, and physical abuse have on the psychological well-being of nonhuman animals rescued from laboratories, including chimpanzees, monkeys, and dogs. She also conducts research on alternatives to the use of animals in psychology education. She has presented her research at academic conferences nationally and internationally, including meetings of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, World Congress on Alternatives and Animal Use in the Life Sciences, the International Primatological Society and American Society of Primatologists, and the National Institute on the Teaching of Psychology. She has published in peer-reviewed journals such as Neuroscience Letters, Behavioral Sciences, Journal of Trauma & Dissociation, Psychology and Education, and the Journal of Animal Ethics, and has been featured in media outlets such as the Washington Post, Nature, NPR, and Science.
