    LEEDS BECKETT UNIVERSITY BUILDING PARTNERSHIPS FOR A PROSPEROUS NORTH An introduction from our Vice Chancellor, Professor Peter Slee Leeds Beckett University is one of a network of 31 Northern Powerhouse universities. Together we comprise one of the strongest sectors in our regional economy: contributing £18bn to GDP and sustaining over 150,000 jobs. We make a formidable contribution to the Northern Powerhouse skills base by educating and training some 518,000 highly skilled people every year.

The Northern Powerhouse universities generate £2.1bn in international export earnings gathered from almost every country in the world. And as major businesses and employers in our own right we are major purchasers of goods via complex supply chains, which create and sustain jobs across our region. Universities all understand the challenges facing our region. We need to attract and retain more graduates. We need to help drive educational attainment at every level in our society. We need to find ways to reach out to small and medium sized businesses with the support they need to help them grow. And we need to shout louder for a place around the policy-making tables to help ensure the benefits of our world class higher education system are fully realised. Leeds Beckett University is fully committed to working in partnership with organisations and employers across the North not just to drive growth, but to help everyone participate in it, and benefit from it.

  • Exploring the Relationship Between Sensorimotor Integration and Social Processing in Autism ESRC DTP Joint Studentship
    Exploring the relationship between sensorimotor integration and social processing in autism ESRC DTP Joint Studentship The University of Nottingham and Loughborough University The Midlands Graduate School is an accredited Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC) Doctoral Training Partnership (DTP). One of 14 such partnerships in the UK, the Midlands Graduate School is a collaboration between the University of Warwick, Aston University, University of Birmingham, University of Leicester, Loughborough University and the University of Nottingham. We are now inviting applications for an ESRC Doctoral Joint Studentship between The University of Nottingham (where the student will be registered) and the Loughborough University to commence in October 2018. The Project This studentship will investigate links between specific sensorimotor integration deficits and social difficulties in autism with a view to developing sensory training paradigms using virtual reality that will have a meaningful impact on social functioning. Sensory abnormalities are a defining feature of autism and may account for a significant amount of social-communication difficulties. However, the current evidence base cannot inform us about how a particular sensory mechanism affects specific areas of social functioning; information vital to the development of appropriate interventions designed to improve both sensory and social function in autism. One theory to link these domains is atypical sensorimotor temporal binding in autism. Accurate sensorimotor binding underlies the awareness and understanding of our own body and researchers have argued that a failure to detect similarities between another’s movements and our own may impair social processing. Recent research has shown that sensorimotor temporal binding is malleable and therefore there is great potential in exploring sensory training as an intervention.
