Dr. Suzanne Zeedyk is a research scientist fascinated by babies’ inborn capacity to communicate.

Since 1993, she has been based at the University of Dundee, within the School of Psychology.

In 2011, she set up her own independent training enterprise to disseminate more widely the science of the early years.

She now spends much of her time speaking to the public about our human need for emotional and physiological connection.

She is able to bring to this her research expertise on topics including parent-infant relationships, family support, communicative disorders, and the socio-political contexts that frame our responses to scientific information.

She works closely with organisations throughout the world to increase awareness of the decisions we take about caring for children, illuminating the way in which those decisions are integrally connected to our vision for the kind of society we wish to build.
