Welcome to the Movement & Learning Lab!​

Our team uses behavioral and eye-tracking methods to understand:
​

How children and adults process and interpret meaning of gestures and actions
-
How gesture and action have similar and distinct impacts on how we think and learn
-
What mechanisms underlie the cognitive effects of gesture and action
