Some great interactions with children at the Glasgow Science festival this morning! We’re giving ultrasound demonstrations and a fun sound prolongation challenge to try — we’re at Riverside Museum all day and on 16th June. @DrJoanneCleland @mridhula_murali

It's been a little quiet but we were busy collecting data - we have completed data collection for time point 1! 275 children from 23 different primary schools across the Scottish belt took part in our project.
