June 2024: Poster presentation at ICIS 2024!

Our pilot study, led by Margherita Belia, has been accepted for a poster presentation at the International Congress of Infant Studies in Glasgow, July 2024. This presentation will be based on an initial exploratory study where we tested babies at different time-points to establish a methodological framework for collecting and analysing lingual ultrasound data with infants. This is a collaborative project with George Bailey, Sam Cobb, Chris Cox, Florence Oxley and Amelia Gully, funded by a HRC Postgraduate Collaborative Project Grant awarded to Margherita Belia (University of York) and an Interacting Minds Centre Seed Fund grant awarded to Chris Cox (Aarhus University/University of York).
