Our Animating Minds project investigates executive functioning…but what exactly is it? And how does executive functioning develop across your life? 📈👶🧠

At QM BabyLab, we study how these abilities emerge and grow!
It's Child Mental Health Awareness Week!
This week is all about raising awareness of children’s emotional wellbeing and mental health.
Just like physical health, mental health matters from the very beginning - let's keep talking about it! 🤝
Today is International Disability Day! 🌍
Sofia, a PhD candidate here at QM, is exploring how children’s animation affects the cognition of neurodivergent children.

You might’ve heard that people are either left-brained, making them logical, or right-brained, making them creative…but this is not the case! 🧠

Did you believe this myth? 🔍
Welcome to our labs at Queen Mary!
The first lab is our Child Development Lab. This is a ‘chill out’ space or waiting area for children and parents. The second lab is the Eye Tracking Lab. Eye tracking will be used to see how animations are impacting executive functioning!
Meet the team currently working on the Animating Minds Project as part of Queen Mary's Child Development Lab!
The aim of the project is to investigate the impact of children's animation features on the executive functions of children using eye tracking and fNIRS technology🧠
