Exploring the Development of the Infant and Fetal Brain
Official Title
Exploring the Connectivity and Functional Organization of the Infant Brain
Purpose
The purpose of the study is to investigate how the brain that we are each born with leads to our own unique behavior later in life, and the similarities and differences between maternal and child brains. We are studying infants prenatally and postnatally, following up with them as they grow and develop, and studying their mothers to understand how similar/different they are to their child.
