“I research how infants’ early perceptual and attentional abilities scaffold their later language development, the relative roles of language experience and brain maturation in word learning during toddlerhood, and the role of sex-specific mechanisms that may protect language acquisition in infants with neurotypical and neurodivergent development, with a focus on infants at increased likelihood for autism.”
