About Us
MARCS BabyLab is a non-profit Western Sydney University Research Centre for pure and applied research focusing on language acquisition, cognitive development and learning. We are the foremost infant research laboratory in Australia.
We team up with little humans to try and answer big questions about what goes on inside the mind of babies and young children. We design simple but intentional experiments on speech perception, conceptual change, and guided play.
Our researchers monitor the participants’ responses using state-of-the-art equipment including eye-tracking and EEG (electroencephalogram) technology.
Our studies allow us to learn more about the way humans acquire language and think about the world.
