- Faculty Profile
Dr. Erin Campbell is a research assistant professor at Boston University Wheelock College of Education & Human Development. Dr. Campbell studies early language and cognition among children born deaf and/or blind. Her research focuses on (1) how perceptual experience (seeing, hearing, touch) and language input shape early language development, and (2) how children and adults learn words for things they cannot directly experience. Dr. Campbell’s approach to research uses multiple methodologies (spanning eye-tracking, electroencephalography (EEG), behavioral, and corpus work) and modalities (spoken and signed languages).
Before joining Wheelock, Dr. Campbell earned a PhD in cognition and cognitive neuroscience from Duke University. Research from her dissertation, “The Influence of Early Sensory and Linguistic Experience on Lexical Development,” has been published in respected journals, such as Neuropsychologia, Journal of Speech, Language, and Hearing Research, and Developmental Science.
