In her PhD, the applicant will conduct controlled experiments to systematically investigate the nature of infant communication. This research will make an immediate contribution to our understanding of human communication and its development in infants, and will also, in turn, facilitate direct comparison with other groups (adult humans, non-human primates) to inform critical questions about what makes humans distinctive, and the link between human minds and human culture, potentially helping to explain what makes human culture so distinctive. This work will directly build on recent theoretical analysis, developed by one member of the supervisory team, that has highlighted gaps in our present knowledge, and advanced our understanding of the differences between human and nonhumancommunication.

在她的博士学位，申请人将进行对照实验，系统地调查婴儿沟通的性质。这项研究将立即有助于我们理解人类沟通及其在婴儿中的发展，反过来，也将促进与其他群体（成年人，非人类灵长类动物）的直接比较，以告知关于是什么使人类与众不同的关键问题，以及人类思想和人类文化之间的联系，可能有助于解释是什么使人类文化如此与众不同。这项工作将直接建立在最近的理论分析基础上，该理论分析由监督团队的一名成员开发，突出了我们现有知识的差距，并提高了我们对人类和非人类沟通之间差异的理解。
