Speaker:
Dr. Lauren Emberson, Assistant Professor and Director of the Baby Learning Lab
Topic:
Infant perception
Description:
Have you ever wondered about what your baby can see and hear? Right from birth, infants are rapidly consuming so much information about their new world, from sounds, colours to even texture. Infants are able to perceive a lot starting from early in life but their perception also changes dramatically. In this Q&A session, Dr. Emberson from the Baby Learning Lab will answer all your questions about infant perception.
