The WUNDER Lab has recruited mothers enrolled in the March of Dimes 1000 Women Cohort study to participate in the eLABE study. Through eLABE, we hope to better understand how experiences during pregnancy and early life affect both mothers' and children's well-being. We have been following families since 2017 and are currently bringing families in around their child's 6th birthday... Co-directed by Drs. Cynthia Rogers and Christopher Smyser, the WUNDER Lab investigates the neural and social mechanisms underlying neurodevelopmental impairments in children. We focus on structural and functional connectivity in preterm neonates, as well as defining the role of social adversity on neurodevelopmental outcomes... Our team strives to improve the outcomes for infants born at risk for adverse long term brain development.
