Erin Meier is an Assistant Professor and principal investigator of The Aphasia Network Lab at Northeastern University. She was a post-doctoral fellow at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine from 2018-2020. She earned her Ph.D. from Boston University in 2018 and M.S. from Purdue University in 2008. Before pursuing her PhD, she worked clinically as a speech-language pathologist in the greater Chicago area, working with adults with acquired neurogenic communication disorders. Her research interests include the neurological bases of language in disease processes, mechanisms of language recovery after stroke, and methods for maximizing functional communication for individuals with aphasia. A main focus of her lab is to better understand the links between brain, language and behavior in real-world contexts. In her free time, Erin enjoys reading, traveling, and spending time with friends and family.
