Thinking about graduate study in cognitive psychology?

  • The study of early cognitive development is central to cognitive science. It has also provided many of its most exciting recent discoveries.
  • Our lab is especially interested in early concept development and domain-specific learning. We investigate these topics by designing and carrying out experiments. (More information)
  • We may have an opening for one new graduate student in Fall 2012 to be advised by Prof. Alan Leslie.
 

If you would like to join our lab ...
