Erika Gisel
Professor Emerita
BA (Textile Arts) Arbeitslehrerinnen Seminar, Zurich, Suisse; BS (OT) Temple University, Philadelphia, PA; PhD (Biology), Temple University, Philadelphia, PA.
Prof. Gisel's research interests are directed toward the assessment and treatment of individuals with neurologically based eating impairments. Studies examining early markers of oral sensory problems in infants with feeding disabilities, as well as the influence of repetitive behaviors on motor development in children with autism spectrum disorders are currently in progress.
