Brain activity and early word recognition in monolingual and bilingual infants
Abstract
The first few years of life are characterised by marked changes in the ability to perceive, understand, and produce language. Until recently, very little was known about changes in the brain that preceded, accompanied, or followed the attainment of component skills for different aspects of language acquisition referred to as language milestones.
We are pleased to announce that the ERC review panels have favorably reviewed Dr Ernő Téglás's proposal entitled: "Precursors of logical reasoning in human infants". The ERC Starting Independent Research Grant from the European Research Council: Seventh Framework Ideas Programme (FP7) provides 1.5 million euros and will help Ernő to continue his research on the highest possible level, and to achieve ground-breaking results. The project is expected to start in May 1, 2015.
