Celine Davis is currently a second-year Ph.D. student in the Department of Communication Sciences and Disorders with a special interest in neurocommunicative science. With a clinical foundation in speech-language pathology, she has gained hands-on experience in the management of cognitive-communication disorders and dysphagia, particularly within the adult-geriatric population.

Her research interests lie at the intersection of technology, culture, and health. Celine is especially passionate about the integration of accessible mobile health (mHealth) technologies in aphasia research, exploring aphasia within multicultural populations, and examining the impact of infectious diseases鈥攕uch as COVID-19鈥攐n language and cognition. Celine actively participates in the Brain and Aphasia Research Lab as well as the Neurophysiology of Aging Lab.
