Awards

2014 Distinguished Research Award, MTSU Foundation

Research / Scholarly Activity

Dr. Magne’s research interest lies at the interface of Neuroscience, Psycholinguistics and Education. His lab provides a collaborative environment in which undergraduate and graduate students work together to address basic questions regarding the relationship between speech rhythm perception, musical aptitude and language skills, using eye-tracking, neuroimaging and genetics methodologies.
