NEUROSCIENCE | During her visit to the UCL Developmental Neuroscience Unit in 2018, the Duchess of Cambridge met Professor Eamon McCrory, who is co-Chair of the UK Trauma Council and works at the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Familes, as well as UCL
Professor Eamon McCrory said: “Our cutting-edge neuroscience research is shedding new light on how the brain develops in the early years. What we are learning has the potential to significantly improve the lives of children and their families.
"I am delighted and truly honoured that Her Royal Highness has shown such interest in our work and is supporting vital research in this area.”
UCL President & Provost, Professor Michael Arthur, said: “We’re delighted that Her Royal Highness is hearing from UCL’s developmental neuroscience researchers, as UCL takes great pride in its neuroscience and psychology work.
"We hope that this can help leverage the work of our neuroscientists as they seek to improve the lives of people affected by mental health disorders and ensure that every child has the best possible start to life.”
WALK, WALK, FASHION BABY | For her surprise appearance at the Neurosciene department of the University College London, the Duchess of Cambridge rewore her burgundy Paule Ka separates, first worn in 2012.

Catherine’s hair was tied up in a ponytail and accessorised with a black J Crew ribbon
The Duchess of Cambridge also met students enrolled on UCL’s MSc programmes in Child Development, which are based at the Anna Freud National Centre for Children and Families. One of these is focused on clinical training, while another is focused on neuroscience research | November 21 2018
