🎉 Congratulations to Dr. Genesis Arizmendi! 🎉

We are excited to congratulate Dr. Genesis Arizmendi, one of our Neuroscience & Cognitive Science (NSCS) faculty members, on receiving the Early Career Scholar Award at the 2026 University of Arizona Distinguished Faculty Awards ceremony on September 23, 2026! 🧠✨

Dr. Arizmendi is an Assistant Professor in Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences with a joint appointment in Cognitive Science and teaches courses supporting both Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences and the NSCS program.

Her community-centered research examines how bilingual language experiences shape learning, development, and access to opportunity for children and adults in multilingual and multicultural settings. Her interdisciplinary work is helping advance both clinical practice and our understanding of bilingual language and cognitive processes.

We are proud to have Dr. Arizmendi as part of our NSCS community and thrilled to celebrate this well-deserved recognition!

Congratulations, Dr. Arizmendi! 🌵🐻⬇️
