The laboratory is housed in a complex in the new Science Complex (SP) at the Concordia University Loyola Campus (west of downtown Montreal; click here for exact location). The lab has several testing rooms, common working space, and offices for graduate students.

The laboratory is equipped with Mac and PC computers. These machines are equipped to run virtually any type of experimental paradigm used in cognitive psychology and psycholinguistics. The Macs are used mainly for stimuli preparation, stimuli presentation, and data collection. Each of the Mac testing stations is equipped with a CMU response box (or ioLab box), headphones, and microphone. In the working area, the Macs and PCs are used mainly for stimuli preparation, data analysis, word processing, internet access, etc. These machines are equipped with databases (such as WordNet, CELEX, Collins Cobuild E-Dict, Collocations, etc.) and several other types of software.

A specialized testing room is set up with a table mounted eye-tracker machine, used for experiments involving the monitoring of eye movements. The eye tracker is connected to a Mac and a PC, a response box, headphones, and microphone. A large projection screen and a multimedia projector are also used for stimuli presentation. We also share a head-mounted eye-tracker with Michael von Grunau's Vision lab.

Another lab with which we share resources is Norman Segalowitz's lab for experiments on attention and second language skills.

In addition to the main lab at Loyola (SP building) we utilize two testing rooms (equipped with Macs and response boxes) in the SAGE lab in the SGW campus (Hall building).

MEG (magnetoencephalography) and fMRI (functional magnetic resonance imaging) experiments are run at the Universite de Montreal.

Patients with probable Alzheimer's disease and patients with aphasia are studied at hospitals and rehabilitation institutions affiliated with the Centre for Interdisciplinary Research in Rehabilitation of Greater Montreal.
