In the LIL (Language and Infant Learning) Lab, we study how language and cognition develops. We are part of the Department of Cognitive Science at the University of California, San Diego.

In our research, we study how infants, children, and adults develop and become skilled language users. We ask questions about how children learn new words and concepts, as well as investigate the driving factors that motivate learning.
