More detail here: https://t.co/DYefl0wQRa. Huge thanks to @teresadelbianco, @EmilyDevNeuro, @MaireadMacS, @Prof_RFilippi, Twitterless coauthors Peter and Atsushi, @EvelyneMercure, and our funders: @ucl, @LeverhulmeTrust, @wellcometrust, @esrc, & @BritishAcademy_ (3/3).

How does early bilingualism affect social attention strategies? 👀 In our new preprint, we use within-trial growth curve analysis to test differences in how monolingual and bilingual children allocate their attention over time to static faces and dynamic mouths. (1/3)

[Victoria St. Clair (Mousley) @vlstclair]

We found that after initially looking at faces & mouths, biling infants disengaged more than monos to view other areas of the scene (7-18mo, n=131). In contrast, biling toddlers increased mouth-looking more over stimulus time than monos (18-34mo, n=745 from @DevelopingHCP) (2/3).

Applications are still open to our MA/MSc Programme in Developmental Science and Neurodiversity! If you are a graduate of psychology/related discipline or soon-to-be, this is a great opportunity to learn cutting-edge contemporary developmental research - https://t.co/KZGv2kCTu9

[Victoria St. Clair (Mousley) @vlstclair]

Looking forward to it! 🧠

[Artinis Medical Systems @Artinis_MS]

We’re thrilled to announce the official launch of the Brite Ultra, our cutting edge mass #fNIRS hyperscanning system. Join us at our Hyperscanning Summer School to discovery its full potential!

Exciting paid research opportunity! Come and work with us on brain development using EEG in the Jones’ lab next academic year @EmilyDevNeuro @BirkbeckBabylab @DivDevSci @Respect4neurod 🧠〰️👶

[Victoria St. Clair (Mousley) @vlstclair]

More detail here: https://t.co/N8Pa5j2Xn4 & code available here: https://t.co/fSiLiR1ZLe. Grateful for wonderful co-authors Letizia, @re_re84, @PaolaPinti & Denis, the @BirkbeckBabylab / @BirkbeckUoL Toddlerlab, and funding from the @LeverhulmeTrust. (4/4)

Happy to share our new study on neural synchrony during children's collaborative problem-solving! We use wearable fNIRS (@Artinis_MS) to replicate findings that synchrony emerges between 4-6yos and parents during collaboration & provide new insight into what it might mean. (1/4)

New paper in Imaging Neuroscience by Victoria St. Clair, Denis Mareschal, et al:

Analytical pipeline optimisation in developmental fNIRS hyperscanning data: Neural coherence between 4- to 6-year old children collaborating with their mothers

https://t.co/1aIoYOtzyg

[Victoria St. Clair (Mousley) @vlstclair]

we create a pseudodyad distribution that preserves task-related frequencies whilst disrupting temporal information in the signal. Results suggest synchrony is at least partially related to patterns of social interaction & isn't driven entirely by a shared task/environment. (3/4)

Check out this exciting study from our colleagues at UEA - they’re recruiting for deaf babies in the UK! @DDPSYUEA

[DCAL @DCAL_UCL]

NEEDED! Research assistants for spring data collection. Experience with deaf children & BSL? Want to grow your research skills? Apply by Fri 7th Feb! Mandatory in-person training: Tues 25th Feb. Questions? Email [email protected]. #PaidJob #ResearchOpportunity

[DCAL @DCAL_UCL]

ONLY 5 MORE TO GO! We are looking for five profoundly/severely deaf 4-year-old children currently in Reception to join our longitudinal project. If you have a child or know someone who might be interested, please reach out! Couldn't have done this without your support! #THANKYOU

[Victoria St. Clair (Mousley) @vlstclair]

@PHFH_POLIMI @fNIRS_org @fNIRS2024 Brilliant work, Letizia!!! 👏

[Virginia Carter Leno @carter_leno]

🚨 We are recruiting a research assistant (2 yrs to start) to work with myself and colleagues at the CBCD - working on the new SENSOR longitudinal cohort study https://t.co/jMkeE7ZBxp 1/4

Great to be part of this with @EvelyneMercure! Look for ch. 39 if you're interested in experience-dependent plasticity in infants' brain activation for language 😊🧠

[Kathrin Cohen Kadosh @kcohenkadosh]

Excited to share that the Oxford University Press Handbook of Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience is now published! 🌟 Huge thanks to all the incredible contributors who made this possible. Start exploring with a free read of the first chapter: https://t.co/grxGjEPxv7
