Smaller brain volume found in fetal MRI brain scans predicts the outcome of children with congenital heart disease across all domains of neurodevelopment.
Brain folds that form during fetal development may have an impact on the age at which symptoms of frontotemporal dementia occur.
Features of the functional connectome are present in the fetal brain during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy.
Researchers have developed a new approach to imaging the functional activity of fetal brains, allowing a better look at how functional brain networks develop.
New research shows babies are able to anticipate touch while still in the womb.
Researchers discover a mother's higher exposure to some common environmental contaminants are associated with more vigorous and frequent motor activity. The results show the fetus is susceptible to environmental exposure and this can be detected by measuring fetal neurobehavior.
