Curious about how babies learn about the links between their body and the space around them? Our new paper @SciReports looks at how and when infants start to be able to predict that an object moving towards them will touch them. A 🧵 nature.com/articles/s41598-0… @BBabyLab @UoB_SoP 1/n

How do we feel about touch in treatment settings? To explain, here’s a beautiful infographic by @KaterinaVafeia3 based on her recent paper in @healthpsychopen
Making science fun! 😃 "Who is comfortable with touch in treatment settings?" is my first attempt to share research findings in a visually friendly way for a non-scientific audience. Many thanks to @mbanissy and @ncbowling for their advice!

1/3 Happy to share my first first authorship publication 😀: doi.org/10.1177/205510292211… Our individual characteristics shape our attitudes to touch in everyday life. However, what about our attitudes to touch in treatment settings?

1/2 We often experience touch in treatment settings (massage, therapeutic etc). But we know less about what contributes to different perspectives on this. We studied this with our new Touch & Health Scale: bit.ly/3AkO0RF
