Research with Infants:
1. What are the precursors of advanced cognitive skills, such as working memory, flexibility, problem solving, planning, and inhibitory control, in infancy? How do they emerge and develop?
2. How do different medical conditions affect these emergent cognitive skills?
Research with Preschoolers:
1. How do advanced cognitive skills, such as working memory, flexibility, problem solving, planning, and inhibitory control develop in young children?
2. How does children's development of cognitive abilities like inhibitory control and cognitive flexibility relate to their ongoing brain development?
