When do infants first show sensitivity to prosody and how do they use it to learn grammar?

Project team lead

Judith Gervain

Our project aims to determine which cognitive and developmental factors contribute to the activation of brain patterns during word learning and recognition in young children using the event-related potential technique.

Magnitude corresponds to the ability to discriminate and represent magnitude information. Studies on newborns from a few hours old, and on pre-verbal babies in the first year of life, to establish the origins, neural bases and characteristics of the ability to represent magnitude information.

This project aims to characterize geometry on different axes through geometry based on spontaneous intuitions for angles, invariance phenomena, or even reasoning in geometries.

Project team lead

Véronique Izard

This project explores how young children are guided by their perceptual and learning abilities during their first steps towards language. Our main objective is to understand how early perception and learning abilities are articulated during the acquisition of the most fundamental properties of the mother tongue.

Our goal in the current project is to study the cognitive and neural mechanisms underlying the development of semantic scene knowledge and the detection of semantic incongruence in visual scenes.
