An amazing end to @dseinternational.bsky.social 2025 Research Forum! We loved the discussions around the roles and experiences of parents and practitioners in supporting children and teens with Down syndrome with reading - so many great ideas about best practices!

Another amazing talk at @dseinternational.bsky.social 2025 Research Forum! Fantastic to hear about some results from the PACT-DS language intervention from Kelly Burgoyne, and see the all positive impacts on both children and parents! Parents really are in a position of power to support development

What a fantastic start to Day 2 of @dseinternational.bsky.social 2025 Research Forum! Huge thanks to Professor Monica Cuskelly for a fantastic talk, urging us to consider wider family dynamics and sibling relationships in families with children with Down syndrome!

Fascinating insights into how we can collect more real-life, naturalistic observations and utilise machine learning for analysis to better inform research to improve the lives of young children with #DownSyndrome from @cardiffbabylab.bsky.social at 2025 Research Forum @dseinternational.bsky.social
