My research explores phonological acquisition in infants. Beginning in the first year of life, this acquisition translates, among other things, into a heightened sensitivity to sounds specific to our linguistic environment.
Under the supervision of Dr. Thierry Nazzi, I am studying the initial sensitivity of infants to perceive certain phonetic contrasts, as well as the impact of mother tongue and variation on the developmental trajectory of this acquisition.
