1/ Very proud to announce my lab has published a new review in Neuroscience & Biobehavioral Reviews! We argue the autonomic nervous system (ANS) is far more integrated than developmental scientists typically assume and that matters!

New BBS Commentary! If half of all children under 5 live in Asia and a third in Africa, then developmental science has only scratched the surface in understanding how children grow up. In addition to broadening diversity, we need to embrace the variability within each culture, family to family.

Proud to be one of many incredible investigators in this new Clinical Research Center on Developmental Language Disorders. We will follow 3,600 toddlers to better understand how language skills emerge and why some children experience delays. Keep your eyes peeled. We'll be hiring soon! 👀

Beautiful blog post from @psychologytoday.com on our recent @pnas.org paper!

Does a Baby’s Heart Rate Determine Their Talking?
Many things have to go right in order for babies to learn to talk. Recent research highlights the role of something that might come as a surprise: heart rate.

Researchers tracked babies’ heart rates and found a decelerating heart rate was associated with the production of words, showing that the autonomic nervous system, which regulates heart rate, interacts with speech production. In PNAS: www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

First paper from the lab is officially published in PNAS! We demonstrate ongoing fluctuations in heart rate coincide with vocal production and word formation in 24-mo-old infants. www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... 1/4
