Research and Training

We focus on cognitive, neuroscientific, and contextual aspects of human development. Our laboratories concentrate on motor and perceptual development, cognitive development in children, attentional development, media and television use by young children, and educational psychology. Our training program has core courses in cognitive and neural development and offers a broad range of possible seminars. We have collaborative relationships with the Neuroscience and Behavior Program and with the Center for Research on Families.

The Developmental Science Area is inviting applications for a faculty position. Please see About Us > Employment Opportunities for more information.
