She has been with the Pediatric Feeding Disorders Program since 2007, working with children with feeding difficulties, intellectual disabilities, and autism spectrum disorders.

Research

Dr. Borrero’s research and training have focused on the application of behavior analytic principles to the assessment and treatment of severe problem behavior exhibited by individuals with developmental disabilities. She has contributed to research in this area through publications related to functional analysis, treatment and the evaluation of caregiver-child interactions. She has published on parent-child interactions and caregiver training related to the assessment and treatment of pediatric feeding disorders. Her current interests include the evaluation of intervention strategies to treat food refusal, caregiver training, and the effects of food preferences on treatment. She has served on the editorial board for the Journal of Applied Behavior Analysis (JABA), Behavior Analysis in Practice, Behavioral Interventions, and Behavior Modification, and has served as a guest associate editor for JABA.
