Dr. Greenwald leads the RHECO Lab and is a Co-Investigator on the Center for Brain Plasticity and Recovery's Pediatric Stroke Research Project. Her research has spanned a variety of topics related to visual and auditory perception, attention, and brain plasticity.

Dr. Greenwald uses behavioral and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) methods to investigate human perception, attention, and emotion, their neural basis, and their impairment in neurological disorders. The long-term goal of her research is to develop novel tools for assessing and treating these impairments. Her research has been supported by the German Academic Scholarship Foundation, the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, and the National Institutes of Health.
