This program gives children with brain disorders like cerebral palsy or stroke access to umbilical cord blood infusions. The treatment uses donated cord blood cells to help repair brain damage. Kids up to age 26 with normal immune function may qualify. The goal is to improve symp…

This study tests whether early physiotherapy, taught to parents, can improve movement and development in babies at risk for problems like cerebral palsy. Fifty infants from the NICU will be randomly assigned to get either the special program or standard care. Researchers will mea…

This study is testing a new, quick MRI technique called Magnetic Resonance Fingerprinting (MRF) to better tell the difference between a brain tumor coming back and damage from radiation therapy (radiation necrosis). About 90 people will take part, including healthy volunteers, pa…

This study is testing a new way to detect motor delays in infants using a special play mat with sensors and a smart toy. Researchers will watch how babies move and interact with the toy, then use AI to spot early signs of disability. The goal is to create an easy, objective tool …

This study follows 65 infants who had a stroke around birth, tracking their brain development and motor skills over two years. Researchers use MRI scans, brain stimulation, and movement tests to find markers of recovery. The goal is to understand how the brain heals, which could …

This study follows 60 infants at high risk for Cerebral Visual Impairment (CVI), a brain-based vision problem often missed until later childhood. Researchers will collect data from clinical exams, brain scans, and vision tests up to 24 months of age. The goal is to create a model…
