Dr Christine Cuskley
Affiliate, Psychology
BioI am working with Stanford as a product manager with the LEVANTE Project (https://levante-network.org/), through CogKnit Labs (https://cogknit.uk). I completed my PhD at the University of Edinburgh, where I was jointly supervised between Psychology and Linguistics. I collaborate with linguists, psychologists, and complex systems scientists to study the evolution of social systems, cognition, and culture, with a particular focus on language and communication. My methodological expertise lies in computatoinal agent-based modelling, large-scale historical corpora, and web-based behavioural experiments (especially including gamification and "multi-player" approaches).

Meg Cychosz
Assistant Professor of Linguistics
BioDr. Cychosz investigates how infants and children develop speech and language, including children who are d/Deaf or hard-of-hearing and multilingual learners. Her research bridges linguistics, cognitive science, developmental psychology, and electrical engineering to understand fundamental questions about language acquisition. Her interdisciplinary approach combines fieldwork with computational methods, using deep learning and automatic speech recognition tools to analyze naturalistic speech recordings from children's daily lives. She is particularly interested in how children's processing limitations might influence the structure of the world's languages, how sensory experiences like hearing loss affect language processing in early childhood, and how technological innovations can make language research more accessible and representative. Dr. Cychosz directs the Speech and Cognitive Development Lab and collaborates with clinical partners in audiology and speech-language pathology to ensure her research has translational impact to support children's language development.

Martha S. Cyert
Dr. Nancy Chang Professor
Current Research and Scholarly InterestsThe Cyert lab is identifying signaling networks for calcineurin, the conserved Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent phosphatase, and target of immunosuppressants FK506 and cyclosporin A, in yeast and mammals. Cell biological investigations of target dephosphorylation reveal calcineurin’s many physiological functions. Roles for short linear peptide motifs, or SLiMs, in substrate recognition, network evolution, and regulation of calcineurin activity are being studied.
