Emory University Child Study Center
Research Studies for Newborns in Atlanta

Research Study for Newborns in the Atlanta AreaHow do children learn and grow? What and how do they think and remember? How do children change as they grow older?

At the Emory University Child Study Center, we study infants, children, and adolescents. We study language, learning, memory, and questions such as how children understand space and numbers. We also investigate the role that brain development plays in child development. Emory faculty, graduate students, and undergraduate students conduct research studies on each of these fascinating and critical issues.

Each study usually involves one or two sessions, and typically takes place at the Emory University campus in a comfortable setting. Parents may stay with their children during the session. They enjoy the chance to play with their children in this context and to observe the study sessions. Infants and children enjoy it too! Parking is free and convenient.
