Analyzing how young brains perceive rhythm from premature neonates to infants

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study investigates the ability of premature neonates, aged between 28 and 40 weeks gestational age, to perceive rhythm and time through auditory stimuli. Using advanced techniques such as High Resolution Electroencephalography (EEG) and High Density Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS), researchers will analyze the cortical network responses in these infants. The goal is to understand the development of auditory perception in the early stages of brain maturation.
