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]).

    • Time will tell if H&B are loved or loathed, the footfall they get and generate will determine if they stay or go. That's the nature of businesses, they come and go dependant on usage. Examples are M&S, Poundland Local, Co-op, Superdrug, Mons, the chain restaurant/takeaways, the chain Estate Agents, Toolstation, Screwfix to name a few.  As much as people would like to see Lordship Lane remain a high street of independents, it is becoming clear that due to Landlords hiking rents, some are unable to survive. This leaves empty units which some of the chain brands considering it to be worth a "punt". I'd have thought that businesses operating in shops is a better alternative than a high street with multiple empty units, but what do I know, they are just thoughts on the subject.   Take a look at Croydon and Bromley where what were once thriving high streets are in decline.  I have to say that some of the prices charged by the independents are eye watering, and incomes i'd have thought have to be substantial to afford their prices. Personally I'd love a Lidl to open on what was the site of the Harvester, but I guess that would get shouted down, oh the thought of Lidl in Dulwich. Whatever next. 
    • IMO, Sealy, the best nights sleep you'll ever have.  
    • I don’t know what the shop was originally next to the big St Christopher’s but if Holland and Barrett are taking it over then surely it’s good to have a choice on Lordship Lane? The Camberwell H&B is always empty but the Brixton branch busy.  I remember when the Marks & Spencer food shop was Iceland? Now the M&S is a very busy store and at the time regenerated the high street!
    • Nor would I have done, but it came up when I googled John Lewis reviews. Do you not trust TrustPilot reviews? Even allowing for the fact that many people only post reviews when they have had poor service, 27% one star reviews is indicative of something wrong, I would say. That's 27% of 76,392 reviews. That's an awful lot of people who don't  think the service they got from John Lewis was even worth two stars, let alone more. Screenshot attached.
