  • Excellent way to keep in touch with the rest of the world

    Thank you so much Dayna and Ash for this podcast. For those of us working in regional and remote areas and with limited access to courses and conferences I really appreciate being able to listen to your podcast to feel that I am keeping up with what’s happening in the research world. Congratulations on your 100th episode which I enjoyed while driving back home after seeing clients on the West Coast of Tasmania yesterday. Looking forward to the next 100.

  • A brilliant research based podcast

    The 1 star reviewer seems to have a vested (possibly) financial interest in CME and DMI. Novak makes a clear differentiation between “hands on” and “hands off” therapies. Merely listening to researcher after researcher on episode after episode (including Novak herself and contemporaries like Longo and de Campos) make this distinction should give a clear indication that the older ways of doing things have now been surpassed.

    I would hope that those that support these outdated philosophies and te... more

  • Episode 26

    Although the Novak et al (2019) paper has been widely cited and discussed amongst health professionals, this episode does not present all information accurately. The description of treatment methods CME and DMI is incorrect and inaccurate, and not included in the original paper. This podcasts representation of these treatment methods in particular is completely incorrect and biased.

EACD 2026: Transforming the experience for families in Early Intervention - Ei SMART (Betty Hutchon)

EACD 2026: Transforming the experience for families in Early Intervention - Ei SMART (Betty Hutchon)
Q: What is EISmart and how did it come about?

EACD 2026: A Scoping Review of the MOVE Program (Riclef Schomerus)
Q: What would your advice be on how clinicians can better implement F words into their practice?
The key is to integrate fun with functioning and family in a holistic approach, ensuring activities are meaningful, enjoyable, and spread to other aspects of the child's life, starting with one area and expanding gradually.
EACD 2026: A Scoping Review of the MOVE Program (Riclef Schomerus)
