Cynthia Salorio Biography :

Cynthia Salorio is a research scientist and Pediatric Neuropsychologist in both the Department of Neuropsychology and the Department of Rehabilitation at the Kennedy Krieger Institute. She is also an Assistant Professor in the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Johns Hopkins University.

Biographical Sketch:

Dr. Salorio graduated in 1992 from Johns Hopkins University with a B.A. in Natural Sciences/Behavioral Biology. After spending two years working in a research laboratory at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, Dr. Salorio continued her education at Washington University in St. Louis. She received an M.A. in 1996 and a Ph.D. in 2000, both in Clinical Psychology with a specialization in Neuropsychology. She completed her Pre-Doctoral Internship in Neuropsychology and Clinical Child Psychology at the University of California, San Diego, and her Post-Doctoral Fellowship in Pediatric Neuropsychology at the Kennedy Krieger Institute. She joined Kennedy Krieger as a Pediatric Neuropsychologist and Licensed Psychologist in 2002.

Research Summary:

Dr. Salorio has a primary interest in brain-behavior relationships in children with a variety of acquired and congenital disorders. Her past research has focused on investigating executive function and other cognitive abilities in individuals with frontal-striatal brain dysfunction, such as children with stroke related to sickle cell disease and individuals with obstructive sleep apnea. More recent research has focused on predictors of cognitive and functional outcomes in children following traumatic brain injury (TBI). Dr. Salorio is currently involved with several projects investigating clinical factors (e.g., neurobiological mechanisms, secondary injury variables, and rehabilitation interventions) that influence rehabilitation outcomes following TBI in children. She is also involved with a study using functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) technology to examine brain activity in children at different stages of recovery from TBI. Other research interests include investigation of the cognitive and psychological factors that potentially impact functional outcomes in children with chronic pain syndromes.
