Lynn K. Paul, Ph.D. is a Senior Research Scientist at California Institute of Technology. She has ongoing neuroimaging and behavioral studies with several unique populations, notably people with congenital malformations of the corpus callosum (ACC / DCC), adults who had hemispherectomy during childhood, and adults with autism spectrum disorders (ASD). She is currently conducting the first prospective longitudinal study of infants with callosal agenesis, funded by the National Institutes of Health.

Dr. Paul is the founding president of the International Research Consortium for the Corpus Callosum and Cerebral Connectivity (IRC5), a multi-disciplinary collaborative effort to understand the causes, consequences, and effective interventions for disorders of the corpus callosum and associated disorders of cerebral connectivity.

She serves as a scientific advisor to multiple patient groups: Australian Disorders of the Corpus Callosum (AusDoCC), National Organization for Disorders of the Corpus Callosum (NODCC), Corpal, and the Pediatric Epilepsy Surgery Alliance. She is co-author of “ACC and Me” and “Emme and Me.”

Dr. Paul maintains a clinical psychology practice (L.K.Paul and Associates) in Pasadena, where she sees adult outpatient clients and conducts neuropsychological assessments on individuals with callosal agenesis.
