First seen Jan 08, 2026 · Last updated Jun 15, 2026 · Updated 23 times

Summary

This study looks at how being born moderately early (32-36 weeks) affects the way babies' brains process speech sounds and learn words. Researchers will measure brain activity using EEG while babies listen to syllables, and track their vocabulary growth over time. The goal is to find early signs that could predict language delays, so these children can get help sooner. About 160 infants will take part.
