Results of the research
Origin of a numerical mental line
In adults, the existence of a mental number line (the representation of smaller quantities on the left and larger quantities on the right) has been demonstrated. But what about newborns?

Numbers in Action: Origins and Dévelopental course – NUMACT
This project studies the appearance, properties and development of the link between number and the performance of an action using behavioural, electrophysiological and electromyographic measurements in human newborns and infants.

Lexical-semantic development
Our studies aim to understand the neural mechanisms underlying this development in monolingual and bilingual children.

Pia Rämä
Acquisition of phonological biases in lexical processing
We aim to understand how different types of sounds, as well as their arrangements within the words of a language, influence the acquisition and lexical processing of French, German, and Franco-German bilingual speakers.

Thierry Nazzi
Vocabulary growth and sound symbolism
Our aim is to study whether the sensitivity to sound symbolism in infancy is linked to emerging vocabulary skills.

Pia Rämä
Voice familiarity in the processing of word meanings
This project aims to investigate whether familiarity with the speaker’s voice facilitates lexical-semantic processing in infants.

Investigating cognitive processes underlying food learning in infancy -F.E.E.D your mind
The aim of the F.E.E.D. your mind project is to shed light on the cognitive processes underlying food learning in infancy and provide empirical bases to design such interventions
