General information on the series

This seminar series started in 2012-2013 as a collaboration between Dr Jo Van Herwegen, Prof Emily Farran and Dr Deborah Riby and provided a platform for early career as well as established researchers to discuss the application of recently developed tools and innovative research methods to the study of neurodevelopmental disorders. The series were sponsored by the British Psychological Society, Williams Syndrome Foundation, and BPS developmental section. The series continues as an annual conference series that moves around the UK and which focuses on cognition and behaviour within and across disorders.

Topics will include: the use of technology such as tablets and computer interfaces and related ethical considerations; the use of ERP and eye tracking; assessing cognitive function inspired from biological function; dealing with individual differences; multisite projects / replication crisis.
