Academic and Clinical Researcher
Dr. Kallhoff's current research involves using event-related potentials (ERPs) with the technology of EEG to investigate language processing deficits in individuals with aphasia. She aims to advance this work by exploring targeted treatments that address specific breakdowns, such as difficulties with predictability and plausibility in reading comprehension.
In addition to her research and clinical work, Dr. Kallhoff has extensive teaching experience at the graduate level. She has previously taught motor speech disorders and now leads courses in aphasia and cognitive-communication disorders at Rocky Mountain University of Health Professions. Passionate about clinical teaching, she strives to engage students with real-world applications of clinical theory and research. Clinically, she also directs the CSD’s aphasia and Parkinson’s groups. Bilingual in Mandarin Chinese and English, she brings a multicultural perspective to her teaching and research, with a deep commitment to improving communication outcomes for individuals with neurogenic disorders.
