For my next academic adventure I’m looking🕵🏼‍♀️ for an apartment in #Munich, ideally near/well-connected to #LMUMunich Starting October/November this year. If you know about anything/ have any hints I would appreciate it. Thank you!

Núria Sebastián, catedràtica de Psicologia de la #UPFBarcelona, recull el Premi Nacional de Recerca 2024, que atorga el Departament de Recerca i Universitats a través de la @fundaciorecerca.bsky.social #PNR24 L'enhorabona! 👏 @enginyeria-upf.bsky.social

Scientific intense weeks come to an end✨ I’ve had the opportunity to share my work, connect with brilliant researchers (also former colleagues☺️) and get inspiring ideas at 3 confs 📆 where I enjoyed outstanding keynotes by Elika Bergelson, Damian Blasi and more! #WILD2025 #ISP2025 #ABCDmeeting

We're still accepting apps for our research scientist position with LEVANTE (levante-network.org). This position is ideal for folks wanting to be the interface between a cool scientific project and an awesome team of software developers. Think of it as a technical product manager, but for science!

Can you use the literature to estimate developmental changes in key cognitive and linguistic abilities? Spoiler: maybe not!

Remember when you first learned about genetics at school? All those fascinating examples of human traits that are each apparently determined by just a single gene? Time to check in on some of your favourites to see how they’re doing. 🧬🧵🧪 1/n

One week left to apply! Re current events: Theoretically this could also be a postdoc position - get in touch if you are interested.

Si teniu o coneixeu famílies amb nadons prematurs, potser us interessa la xerrada que faré sobre el seu desenvolupament lingüístic a través de l'Associació SomPrematurs 👶 Dilluns dia 12, a les 19h, gratuïta. Apunteu-vos: somprematurs.cat/es/mc-events... @sdrecercaupf.bsky.social @upf.edu

Si tens un nadó entre 3 i 24 mesos, vine i participa als estudis del BabyLaB UPF al campus Ciutadella. Apunta't: www.upf.edu/web/cbclab/b...

New Peekbank preprint! A snapshot of what we've learned so far about developmental change in word recognition using the large-scale repository of infant eyetracking data we've been building (~ 2000 infants; ~3500 individual test sessions)

✨Playback of #teap2025 (Part 2) A thought-provoking symposium on #StatisticalLearning & its role in #language & #reading, chaired by @troembke.bsky.social & @xeniaschmalz.bsky.social. Great contributions by @mireiamarimon.bsky.social, Haoyu Zhou, Lukas Hauser & @matildellen.bsky.social!

Happy to officially announce that @alanlangus.bsky.social and I were awarded a @volkswagenstiftung.bsky.social Open Up grant to investigate infants’ minds🧠 We were delighted to meet all other grantees in Hannover & we’re looking forward to see you again in two years. #VolkswagenStiftung #kickoff

Day 1 #TeaP2025 with a great talk by Prof. Wolfe & a successful symposium on Statistical Learning (thanks @troembke.bsky.social @xeniaschmalz.bsky.social). Also, if you’re in Germany & a bit tired of ethics applications check out #Ethiktool (a software solution to support the ethical assessment)

Join our #teap2025 symposium & discuss #StatisticalLearning & its role in #language & #reading! March 10 | 17:00–18:30 Chairs: @troembke.bsky.social, @xeniaschmalz.bsky.social Speakers: @mireiamarimon.bsky.social, @matildellen.bsky.social, Lukas Hauser, Haoyu Zhou, Xenia Schmalz

I know we all have much more important things to worry about right now. But just hopping on to say how fascinating it is that so many fans of the delicious Tony's Chocolonely fail to notice the second "L" in the name until you point it out. It's like a linguistic illusion.

Applications for the ninth summer school on statistical methods for linguistics and psychology close on April 1, 2025. Every year people contact me saying they missed the call, so here it is again :) vasishth.github.io/smlp2025/

Our new paper is out! ✨ We explored the use of acoustic and statistical cues by French speakers and French-learning infants in a word segmentation task direct.mit.edu/opmi/article...

Ever wondered how to master eye-tracking in developmental science? 🤔 Join us at the next #DevStart workshop (3–4 April 2025, London)! Hands-on tutorials, open-source tools, and a poster session to share your projects. 🤓 For more info and registration see the link below! 👇

Is there any way to check the instances of the verb “delve (into)” before vs. after chatGPT in non-English speaking countries? I had never it heard before, first saw it in chatGPT outputs, now I see it everywhere. I’ve used it so far to identify AI generated texts😅
