Welcome to the Bilingual Language Development Laboratory website!
The Bilingual Language Development Lab at Loyola University Chicago is led by Dr. Perla B. Gámez, Associate Professor of Psychology. Our research team is dedicated to investigating the language and literacy development of children negotiating two languages. We aim to understand how children's linguistic environments and experiences, at different developmental time points, help promote their language and literacy skills. We invite you to peruse our website to learn more about our team and on-going research projects.
Note: Dr. Gámez is currently recruiting a new graduate student to begin in Fall 2019. The application deadline for the Developmental Psychology PhD program is January 15th, 2019.
