In case you missed the announcement in last month's newsletter, ManyBabies is launching a new project on Neonatal Imitation!
We hosted the first of two planning workshops via Zoom earlier this month. Experts in the field got together to share their work and begin discussing what the project will look like. A recording of the workshop is available here.
The second planning workshop will be held on July 28 (see time above and on the MB calendar). We'll be hearing from more experts and continuing the conversation started in the first workshop. All ManyBabies members are invited to attend. Please register for the event to receive a Zoom link.

The MB3 Stage 1 Registered Report received an In Principle Acceptance from Developmental Science! Congrats to the team on reaching this milestone! Details of the study are in the final ‘IPA’ report, and the lab manual.
This means we can now move forward with data collection. Earlier this month we had two data preparation kick-off meetings (slides, recording1, recording2).

MB-AtHome: Online Infant Data Collection
The project has received ethics approval for testing infants using the Lookit platform. Once the final step of launching multilingual translations of the platform is completed, we’ll be ready to start collecting data in the first sub-project investigating visual preference!

call for data analysts &
code reviewers
ManyBabies projects offer many opportunities for data analysis contributions. We welcome contributions to data analysis at all levels, from basic code review/error checking to leadership on analysis teams. Expertise in the specific project topic is not required to contribute to data analysis. Working on one of the analysis teams is a great opportunity to become familiar with these large datasets that also provide opportunities for secondary data analysis and many-analysts type projects.
Please get in touch if you'd like to contribute to active analysis efforts!
