The early postnatal period is crucial for brain development and understanding neurodevelopmental disorders. This study examines spatial brain network development in early infancy, a less-explored area ...

The trajectory of sleep in the first year of age is highly dynamic and correlates with developmental progress from the neonatal to the infantile period. During this critical period of brain growth, ...

The human brain undergoes significant development during the final prenatal months and through the first year of life. And while scientists have begun to map the developmental trajectories of this ...

A new study shows that whether families can reliably meet basic needs, not just how much they earn, may shape infants’ brain development as early as the first year of life. Study: Income insufficiency ...

As any parent can attest, the first few years of a child's life are marked by many sleepless nights. However, the expectation that infants should sleep through the night by a certain age is widespread ...

Decades of research show that early psychosocial stress, including chronic exposure to adversity, can shape how a child's brain develops, with effects that last well beyond childhood. But families ...

An international research team has uncovered compelling evidence that gut-microbe-derived molecules may play an important role in shaping the developing immune system during early childhood. The ...

Scientists headed by a team at the University of Utah Health have reported on research in mice suggesting that microbiome composition during infancy can shape development of pancreatic ...
