What do human infants expect when adults communicate to them?

Invited lecture by Gergely Csibra, Ph.D.

Dr Csibra's research focuses on cognitive development in infancy, from attention through the interpretation of communicative signals as well as the neural correlates of these behaviors.  He has been at Birkbeck in London (http://www.bbk.ac.uk/psyc/staff/academic/gcsibra) and has recently moved to Central European University in Budapest (http://web.ceu.hu/phil/csibra/publications.html).

His most recent work includes titles such as:
- Natural pedagogy as evolutionary adaptation
- Near-infrared spectroscopy: A report from the McDonnell Infant Methodology Consortium
- Seventeen-month-olds appeal to false beliefs to interpret others' referential communication

All are welcome
