Team research topics:

The Language and Cognition team investigates the mechanisms and constraints at play in language acquisition and cognitive development. Our research is mainly conducted at the INCC BabyLab, a platform specifically designed to study young children. The babylab is equipped with different setups to run experiments using both behavioral (e.g., eye-tracking) and neuroimaging (EEG/ERP, NIRS) techniques.

we work in collaboration with parent and professional institutions linked to atypical acquisition (deafness and cochlear implantation, Williams syndrome, autism) and bilingualism, schools, and hospitals (coll. Robert Debré and Necker hospitals).
