<span style="color:#5D594F"><a href="https://www.mpi.nl/page/mpi-labs"><span style="color:#E46B2A">The Max Planck Institute for Psycholinguistics</span></a> </span>is a world-leading research institute devoted to interdisciplinary studies of the science of
language and communication, including departments on genetics, psychology, development, neurobiology and multimodality of these fundamental human abilities. We investigate how children and adults acquire their language(s), how speaking and listening happen
in real time, how the brain processes language, how the human genome contributes to building a language-ready brain, how multiple modalities (as in speech, gesture and sign) shape language and its use in diverse languages, and how language is related to cognition
and culture, and shaped by evolution. <span style="background:white">The research of the Language Development Department focuses on how children learn to communicate with language, how the developing brain supports this process, and how it is affected by cross-linguistic,
cultural and individual variation.</span></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#5D594F"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
