Sarah Grey's research focuses on the neurocognition of adult second language acquisition (SLA) and bilingualism. Informed by multiple areas - including psycholinguistics, applied linguistics, and cognitive psychology- she uses behavioral and electrophysiological techniques to study adult language learning and bilingual language processing as well as the effects of cognitive, social, and biological individual differences on learning/processing. Her work has appeared in Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, Neuropsychologia, The Modern Language Journal and Studies in Second Language Acquisition.
