Additional information
This collaborative study between bioengineering and neurosciences investigated the Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) signal in fMRI in infants. It showed that the haemodynamic response function is very different in preterm and newborn infants, and that application of the correct function allows accurate fMRI in this population for the first time. This work has led on to a major programme of funded work to map the development of brain function in the normal human infant and to define the effects of perinatal brain damage. This work is published in the top neuroimaging journal.
