At the Lab for the Developing Mind, directed by Dr. Moira Dillon, we investigate the development of those cognitive processes that make us human. We conduct short and fun studies with infants and young children at our lab located on NYU’s campus near Washington Square Park. Our lab is currently closed for in-person studies, but we are still collecting contact information if you would like to be notified about studies when the lab reopens.

We now also have online studies that you can participate in from the comfort of your home! Click here to learn more about and participate in our lab’s online studies. Click the above button to sign up for in-person studies.
