Scholarly Areas

Dr. Alonzo’s research focuses on the connection between language and literacy development, with an emphasis on the role of underlying cognitive processes that support successful reading acquisition, particularly in children with developmental language disorder (DLD). Given her clinical background, Dr. Alonzo’s research is centered on the development of sensitive diagnostic tools and effective interventions to assess and treat children with language and literacy impairments, which are accessible and feasible for practicing clinicians. Because Dr. Alonzo is committed to the translation of this research into current practice, she incorporates clinical practice research and implementation science frameworks into her research agenda and aims to create productive researcher practitioner partnerships in the community.
