Six members of the SALBIS group, Arrate Pinto, Ana Felicitas López, Raquel Leirós, Mª José Álvarez, Óscar Rodríguez, and Rubén García, led a workshop titled “The First Steps We All Take” at the recent edition of EXPOCIENCIA held in Ponferrada.
The workshop consisted of an educational breakout session on the phenomena surrounding pregnancy, childbirth, and the first weeks of life. During the session, attendees were required to complete tasks using models, videos, and images to learn about the development of life in the womb, the process of childbirth, and the physical and sensory characteristics of babies that are lost as they grow older. Finally, they encountered a surprise box that they had to open by solving a final collaborative task together.
In addition to the aforementioned members from the Physiotherapy and Nursing departments belonging to the SALBIS group, the workshop received fundamental support throughout the two days of the EXPOCIENCIA event from other faculty members from the Physiotherapy department and from fourth-year students of the Physiotherapy Degree program.
