This study uses sensitive measures of brain blood flow an its response to change to inhaled oxygen levels to determine how the brain protects its oxygen supply.

To determine the extent that subtle brain injury, blood flow to the brain, and learning problems relate to type of brain tumor treatment given.

The objective of this study is to learn how anemia may affect oxygen delivery to the brain as measured by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). By studying this, we hope to better identify people who may benefit from correction of their anemia.

The objective of this study is to better understand how a single ventricular heart with Fontan physiology may affect brain health.

A study to look at how having chronic anemia impacts the brain.

To investigate bone health in cerebral palsy and the relationship between walking and bone health.

Develop better ways of screening and diagnosing certain types of brain injuries in infants and children who are born with and without congenital heart disease.

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.

1) To determine if 5 doses of Epo (Erythropoietin) 1000 U/kg (birth weight) intravenous (IV) reduces the rate of death or neurodevelopmental impairment (mild, moderate, or severe) at 24 months of age. 

2) To assess safety of Epo. 

3) To determine whether Epo decreases the severity of HIE-induced brain injury as evidenced by early MRI and plasma biomarkers of brain injury.

We are interested in observing whether and how infants learn when interacting with a robot during a learning assessment contingency paradigm.
