.@ut_english alumna Jeanette Horn released her debut novel “Play, With Knives” on March 4 after more than a decade of work. The Texan sat down with Horn to discuss her connection to Austin, her previous work with poetry and how she integrates the magic of coincidence into her storytelling.

🧵 Congratulations to UT Psychology Associate Professor Kaya de Barbaro on leading groundbreaking @UTAustin research using AI and wearables to study parent-child attachment.

NIH funding supports this innovative approach to understanding early relationships.

[Dell Medical School @DellMedSchool]

You can't "diagnose" good parenting, but social-emotional development has lifelong health impacts. With wearables and algorithms, a team from @LiberalArtsUT and #DellMed is painting a clearer picture of how relationships develop in the home. https://t.co/sSONty3u2g

[UT Liberal Arts @LiberalArtsUT]

The research aims to develop tools for early identification of families needing additional support — critical for preventing attachment challenges and promoting lifelong wellness.
