Talk Title: Representations of the world in developing minds: How babies and children think about objects

Abstract: Forthcoming

Bio: Melissa Kibbe, PhD, is a cognitive scientist and associate professor of psychological and brain sciences at Boston University. Dr. Kibbe's research focuses on how infants, children, and adults represent information about objects (e.g. perceptual features, animacy, group statistics, numerosity, verbal labels). Kibbe also looks at the kinds of computations we can do with these representations, and the ways in which we use these representations to guide behavior. Finally, Kibbe studies how cognitive systems (such as working memory, attention, social cognition, and decision-making) interact during complex tasks. Kibbe's research relies on both behavioral methods and computational modeling of cognitive processes.
