Using wearable neuroimaging to investigate infant sleep and development

This event is part of a series of Psychology seminars that regularly occurs during the Autumn and Spring terms.

This talk will demonstrate how recent advances in wearable neuroimaging (fNIRS, EEG) can be leveraged to study infant development and its association with sleep based on two studies.

One study is a feasibility study aiming to investigate the potential of an in-home developmental testing battery for inclusion into large scale birth cohort studies. The second study is an in-lab sleep study using a custom-built, wearable fNIRS-EEG headgear.

Louisa Gossé will talk about lessons learned regarding in-home data collection and method development, potential for scalability and touch upon ways to analyse multi-modal (sleep) data.
