Sleep. We can't live or learn without it, but how much do we know about what's happening in our brains while we snooze? 😴 Join us on 14 March 2024 from 6:30pm - 8:00pm at the @slqld as our engaging scientific panel explore all things sleep. Register: 🔗bit.ly/4bfJo02
Research by @BonnieSearle3 from the @QldBrainInst found that meals provided in childcare centres in low socio-economic QLD communities are not meeting national dietary requirements, impacting #children’s #health and #development. 🔗bit.ly/3uwQVXL #UQ #QBI #BrainHealth
Watch @BonnieSearle3 discuss the study she led in childcare centres across Brisbane, investigating the quality and quantity of food given to young children. "Without adequate nutrition, it's harder for children to learn and regulate their behaviour." #UQ #QBI #childcare
#UQ researchers have found meals provided in early education and childcare centres in some low-economic communities are only meeting 75% of estimated energy requirements. 🔗brnw.ch/21wGUJj @QldBrainInst

@ThorpeProf from the @QldBrainInst discusses the groundbreaking study revealing disparities in childcare nutrition in regional/remote areas with @normanswan on @RadioNational. abc.net.au/listen/program… #UQ #QBI #brain #childcare #research
@pjhelliar At one level this is funny - cute kids disagreeing with adults .....but Out of the mouths of babes - whoever pays improved conditions for educators is critical. Educators work environments are children's learning and emotional environments. See our research
Instead of learning about sleep health, most children are learning to conform & cope during their sleep/rest-time experiences in Early Childhood Education & Care. I report our research in a @childmags post: childmags.com.au/what-exactly-i… @UQ_News @lifecourseAust @EarlyChildAust @ACECQA
@andrew_c4000 @cameronparsell @canberratimes great to see this out

@MichelleBradyUQ @emmajillcooke @uqsocsci Congrats @emmajillcooke ! Well done!
New article in Journal of Pediatrics! authors.elsevier.com/c/1Xx5s55CrsTG0
Great analysis in this article!
We recommend that future research into children’s well-being in ECEC/OSHC should not limit conceptualisations of well-being to just happiness but rather take open-ended approaches to enquiry to allow a broader range of themes to emerge. See below for free article access details!
@emmajillcooke Great work @emmajillcooke !
