Have you ever wondered:


? What infants know about the world around them?

? How they learn to take their first steps?

? How infants learn to pay attention to some things and not others?


At Goldsmiths InfantLab we study these questions and more! We are located within Goldsmiths College (University of London), New Cross. We study children?s cognitive development, with a particular focus on how infants and children learn to perceive and act on the world around them by combining and interpreting their various sensory inputs to control their actions.


Our studies take the form of age appropriate games. We use a variety of scientific techniques to investigate children?s cognitive development across a broad age range. Visit our facebook page to see JJ one of our PhD students explain one of these methods, and to see photos from recent lab visits.

We recruit infants between 0 and 18 months of age. If you are interested in registering your child, or if you have any questions about the research that we do, then please get in touch with us at [email protected] and we would love to tell you more.

We have had two papers published this week tracking the development of tactile perception in infants (http://www.gold.ac.uk/news/homepage-news/ahands-onapproachcouldhelpbabiesdevelopspatialawareness.php) and children (bit.ly/1oFHEA8).


Thank you so much to all the infants, children and parents who made this research possible.


If you are interested in helping us with future research then get in touch to find out more ([email protected]).

    • I don't mind getting the ball rolling, but there would have to be more organisers than just me 🤣 I've got more than enough to do already. Also as I often don't recognise faces or remember names, I wouldn't be an ideal person (though in the old days, we had labels with our forum names on, if memory serves)  Sorry admin, I've gone well off topic.
    • There was a brief discussion on the Lounge about the good old days of the Forum and the drinks where people with differing views seemed to get on fine with each other.  Can't find it or I would give you the link @Earl Aelfheah or @Sephiroth I think one of you had said something along these lines.  Yes go for it Sue!
    • Great idea! Yes, I think the SE22 curry club died a death. The restaurants were all much of a muchness at the time anyway, apart from Ganapati. Nyge and I were also recently  discussing whether people would be interested if we restarted  the Forum Drinks. They used to be fun, but I think the main organiser moved out of the area, as did some others,  and nobody else was very keen on taking it on.  Unless they are still happening covertly 🤣 If memory serves they were monthly, and in a different pub each time. It was good to be able to meet people in real life who post on the forum. I might start a separate thread at some point to see if anyone would be interested.
