In this study we aim to gather grandparents’ views about their grandchildren (e.g., similarities / contrasts in values) and explore these across different cultural contexts.

Grandparents play an important role in children’s lives, but existing studies rarely go beyond hours of contact.

So far, we have interviewed 50+ grandparents in Italy (online or by phone) and so we know that taking part is enjoyable - we do hope you’re interested!

Some babies have a tougher start in life. One in three babies admitted to neonatal intensive care will fail their school readiness assessment at age five, with consequences lasting into adulthood.

Our new project will identify babies at greatest risk & give them a helping hand.

Babies’ Longitudinal Outcomes, Omics and Milestones Study (BLOOMS) will be one of the flagship programmes inside the Cambridge Children's Research Institute at the planned new Cambridge Children's Hospital.
