RuCCS Marquee Course Series: Making a Mind with a Brain
Flyer for Elika Bergelson's Event
Professor Elika Bergelson, Crandall Family Assistant Professor at Duke University. Dr. Bergelson’s work focuses on the interplay of processes during language acquisition. In particular, how word learning relates to other aspects of learning language (e.g. speech sound acquisition, grammar/morphology learning), and social/cognitive development more broadly (e.g. joint attention processes) in the first few years of life.
