Found a way to combine some of my passions. Allow me to present: infant studies representing each of Taylor Swift's eras ✨🫶💖 (a thread)

Ultrasounds to study in utero cortical development 🤯🤯🤯🧠🤰🏽🫄🫃🏼🫄🏻🫄🏻🫄🏿 Madeleine Wyburd #fitng2023

The BEAN study - Bangladesh Early Adversity Neuroimaging Study (lcn-bean.org) - Eileen Sullivan providing wonderful insights into auditory statistical learning in two-year old Bangladeshi children monitored by fNIRS. #FITNG2023

Thanks Fetal, Infant, & Toddler Neuroimaging Group—FIT’NG for a great conference! Our lab had a great time sharing our work and learning from the interesting talks and discussions 👶🧠🍷 #FITNG2023

I really enjoyed sharing my work with sandy waxman Infant and Child Development Center & learning what everyone with the Crossing the Borders Project has been working on at #CTBconference this week 🧠🇩🇪🍻 thanks for having me!

1/5: 🌟 Just In: The world's first digital atlas of fetal brain development is here! 🧬 A global team of over 200 researchers collaborated to unveil the human brain's structural journey during weeks 14-31 of gestation-- filling a critical 6-week knowledge gap on early development

What causes dyslexia? Scientists are searching for clues in the brain and identifying many factors — neural to societal — that are linked to the condition bit.ly/3vMSDV5

“The link between non-human primate vocalizations and cognition is not constrained by maturation alone: Evidence from healthy preterm infants" 📢New paper from: Dr. Kali Woodruff Carr & sandy waxman @icdcnu sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Very cool! 🧬👂🏻🐁 nih.gov/news-events/ni…

.Carol Wilkinson shares new data on developmental trajectories of EEG activity from 0-3 years—revealing age-dependent, nonlinear changes in periodic alpha and beta brain waves that are suggestive of distinct milestones in circuit maturation. brain.harvard.edu/hbi_news/what-…

It’s National Protect Your Hearing Month! Join us in spreading the word about these steps for practicing #SafeListening: lower the volume, move away from the noise, & wear hearing protectors, such as earplugs or protective earmuffs: go.nih.gov/5cO8Nm1 #NPYHM

Save the date! On 10/18, the NIH TALK initiative is kicking off its fall series with the Longitudinal Data workshop. Speakers will discuss projects that use longitudinal methods & considerations for research on late talkers. bit.ly/3XsIHu7

Noise is all around us, but exposure to too much loud noise can damage our hearing. During October’s #NPYHM, check out our interactive noise meter to discover how loud common sounds are and get tips on what you can do to protect your hearing. go.nih.gov/ONnbTEb

Loved working on this paper with Fetal, Infant, & Toddler Neuroimaging Group—FIT’NG colleagues! 🧠✨

It's #BrainAwarenessWeek! Share NIMH resources to help educate the public about the impact of brain science on our everyday lives and inspire the next generation of scientists! go.nih.gov/m3To6tF. #BrainWeek

Hearing depends on a series of complex steps that change sound waves in the air into electrical signals that travel to the brain. This #BrainAwarenessWeek March 10–16, explore how we hear: go.nih.gov/xzXhMIP. #BrainWeek #BrainScience

Check out the recent announcement from the #NICHD about the NIH Baby Toolbox and its potential to revolutionize early childhood development assessments. #EarlyChildhood #PediatricResearch ⬇️ Read the full article here: ow.ly/8WQt50VjmiH

The NIH Toolbox® is now available for researchers and clinicians as an iPad app.

Really enjoying Society for Research in Child Development this year! I’m giving a talk tomorrow in the symposium, “Early neural development in low-resourced settings” about infant EEG trajectories predicting late talking in toddlerhood for children growing up in poverty 🧠👶👧 Hope to see you there!
