Bio
Currently, I work as Academic Recruiter at the Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences, where I continue my work towards open, diverse, and innovative science. My position is part of a larger project to support future professors - who might not yet think of themselves as such!

This work continues my ongoing efforts, most prominently as co-founder of compcog.science (with Olivia Guest) and R-Ladies Paris (with Page Piccinini).
At the same time I am a guest researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics, after my stay as Senior Investigator came to an end. I study how babies begin learning words. It might seem like child's play, but as soon as we are confronted with a language we do not understand, we can get an idea of the problems children face. It's difficult to even find the boundaries between words, let alone decipher their meaning, just from observing native speakers.
In my experimental work, I assess how different day-to-day experiences might influence infants' learning trajectory, because this can shed light on what children pay attention to in their input and how they learn. I complement this by computational modelling, which allows me to specify the memory and learning mechanisms when simulating a little language learner. I also use modelling to characterize the input children receive and to check which information they can reasonably access. A third strand of research relies on meta-scientific tools to aggregate all existing evidence, as demonstrated on the online platform metalab.stanford.edu. My goal is to use this wealth of data to generate more robust theories. For the same reason I am a member of the governing board of ManyBabies (manybabies.stanford.edu), an international network of child laboratories that aims to assess influential experiments in developmental psychology.
Before coming to the MPI, I worked at Ecole Normale Supérieure in Paris, France, with Alejandrina Cristia. My position was funded among others by a Marie Sklodowska-Curie individual fellowship to assess the impact of speaker variability in daily life on early language development. This research question was motivated by my PhD thesis, supervised by Paula Fikkert, Lou Boves, and Louis ten Bosch at Radboud University Nijmegen. In my dissertation I used computational modelling to assess the theoretical impact of learning from one versus multiple people.
