To understand how environmental factors affect a child's early brain development. This includes positive factors like social support and parent-child bonding and challenges like poverty, stress and early life exposures.
We are interested in observing whether and how infants learn when interacting with a robot during a learning assessment contingency paradigm.
Our goal is early identification of deviation from healthy brain development to allow targeted early intervention and improve developmental outcomes.
The collection of the research data we hope will help better screening, diagnosing procedures and treatment of brain injury in newborns and identify a connection between MR imaging and neurodevelopmental outcomes.
Our purpose is to look at the long-term neurodevelopmental outcomes of preterm neonatal brain abnormalities.
