Amanda Seidl studies how infants perceive speech sounds and develop language, including how the way adults talk to babies (infant-directed speech) relates to vocabulary growth, and how infants' vocalizations and early word learning unfold across different languages and populations. Her work often draws on large, multi-lab, cross-linguistic datasets and includes some children with developmental conditions such as fragile X syndrome and preterm birth.
Publication output was relatively steady from 2017 to 2020 (5-7 papers/year) but has slowed markedly since 2021, with only 0-1 publications per year in recent years.
