Researchers and Partners

KCLC’s research is carried out by a collaborative team that brings together KCLC’s own Postdoctoral Research Associate, Dr. Lora Cawelti; Faculty colleagues and PhD students from across the USC campus, each contributing a different perspective on how diverse learners learn and thrive. In the fall of 2026 we are welcoming KCLC’s first-ever Faculty Fellow, Dr. Helena Seli, who will help us expand the depth and breadth of our research. Together, this growing team works to turn research into practices that support diverse learners.
