The new IRCD Babylab suite was created in 2007. It is very child and parent friendly and includes state of the art tests to help us understand how babies think and behave.
We are studying how babies learn and develop from birth onwards. As babies can't tell us what they know, to understand how babies think and develop requires the use of a range of innnovative methods.
We are involved in a number of projects exploring, for example:
- how brain functions develop in the first months of life.
- how babies’ language and attention develops.
- how infants recognise emotions in facial and bodily gestures.
- how their home environment can stimulate their brain development.
If you live in or around East London and are interested in participating in our studies, please sign up. Please mention your name and contact details as well as your baby’s name and date of birth/due date. You can use our web form or call:
