Welcome to ELfLanD
Welcome to the Edinburgh Laboratory for Language Development (ELfLanD)! We are a group of researchers at the University of Edinburgh who study how we learn to speak and understand language. ELfLanD is part of the Wee Science research group. To find out more about the kind of research we do, please visit the Our Research page.
At ELfLanD we are looking for participants who can help with our research. There are different types of studies for different age groups ranging from 6 months to adults. If you are interested in participating in our studies with your child, please see our Taking Part page for more information.

We carry out a range of studies to understand how language is learned. Here are some of the specific topics we are working on.
