Busy week here at the @uniofbath.bsky.social !

On Tuesday and Wednesday, I attended several sessions as part of the Doctoral Festival of Ideas, including:
A picture of my poster on a blue stand, with light brown bricks in the background. The title of my poster is "Repetitive Sensory Motor Behaviours, Sensory Reactivity, Anxiety, and Autonomic Arousal in Autism" A screenshot of my poster in PowerPoint. The title is "Repetitive Sensory Motor Behaviours, Sensory Reactivity, Anxiety, and Autonomic Arousal in Autism". The poster describes background information about autism and repetitive sensory motor behaviours, past research into repetitive sensory motor behaviours, and my PhD aims. The poster then describes my current systematic literature review, before leading into my future PhD plans. There is an image of the BIOPAC Research Ring and a Canva drawing of a Black woman with a sunflower lanyard tapping her fingers on a yellow table (image created by Mia Olofsson on Canva).

Loved the #PhD Summer Conference hosted by the @psychologybath.bsky.social yesterday - I really enjoyed learning about what all the other PhD students in the department are researching, and had fun delivering my own presentation.
PowerPoint slide with a dark blue background for the top two thirds of the slide, and a white background for the bottom third. The title reads "Autism and Stimming: Investigating the roles of Sensory Reactivity, Anxiety, and Autonomic Arousal" and the subtitle reads "By Holly Wilkinson. Supervised by Prof Ailsa Russell, Dr Tom Arthur, & Prof Mark Brosnan"
