My name is Gale Stam. I am Professor of Psychology at National-Louis University. I
am also an alumna of the McNeill Gesture Lab at the University of Chicago and retain
close ties to the lab. My research interests include language and culture, language and
cognition, speech and gesture, and first and second language acquisition, particularly
the development of first language (L1) thinking for speaking and linguistic and gestural
changes in thinking for speaking with second language (L2) acquisition.
