In brief
This research focuses on the long-term cognitive development of children, including healthy infants and those who had a perinatal brain injury. As part of this research study, children complete in-person games and assessments at UW-Madison University Hospital. Children will also take part in an EEG assessment. Parents will be asked to fill out questionnaires about their child's behavior and stress in the home.
