We want to know how the mind develops

Austin Thought is a cognitive development lab at The University of Texas at Austin.

Our research team wants to answer the big questions about the mind! We think the best way to understand the mind is to explore how it develops. Our lab conducts research studies to understand how the ways children and adults think about the world change over time and in response to their environment. We publish research on our findings.
