Mechanisms of Early Language Acquisition : Brain and Behavior (MELA) 

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.
