Barbara Landau is the Dick and Lydia Todd Professor of Cognitive Science at the Johns Hopkins University, USA. She received her Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 1982, and held faculty positions at Columbia University, the University of California, Irvine, and the University of Delaware before she moved to Johns Hopkins in 2001, where she served as Chair of the Cognitive Science Department from 2006-2011. She is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the Cognitive Science Society, the Association for Psychological Science, and the American Psychological Association. Dr. Landau's scientific research addresses the nature of human spatial understanding, the nature of language, and the relationship between these two systems of knowledge in development and adulthood. Her most recent book is Spatial representation: From gene to mind (2012).
