Early Cognitive Development Lab
My interests lie in early cognitive and language development- how babies and young children learn to make sense of the world and to communicate. In an increasingly multilingual and multicultural world, I am interested in how early experiences with multiple languages and cultures shape children’s understanding of their physical and social world.
