Congratulations to Kirsty Green on passing her viva! Kirsty’s PhD, supervised by Prof. Sotaro Kita, explored how iconicity - when a word or gesture resembles what it means - supports early communication. She found caregivers using iconic words sparked greater engagement from infants.

Congratulations to Mingtong Li on a successful PhD viva! Her work, supervised by Dr. Suzanne Aussems and Prof. Sotaro Kita, examined how iconic temporal modulations in gesture and speech help learners interpret new verbs across development and what this reveals about iconicity comprehension.
