Better neonatal care has improved survival of prematurely born children. While most of these children will have no obvious brain lesion and attend mainstream schools, many will experience motor and cognitive difficulties and problems with social adjustment. However, the physiological mechanisms underlying this dysfunction are unknown. We will study preterm and term born children to elucidate the physiological mechanisms underlying motor and cognitive dysfunction associated with prematurity.

更好的新生儿护理提高了早产儿的存活率。虽然这些孩子中的大多数没有明显的脑部病变并就读主流学校，但许多人会遇到运动和认知困难以及社会适应问题。然而，这种功能障碍背后的生理机制尚不清楚。我们将研究早产儿和足月儿，以阐明与早产相关的运动和认知功能障碍的生理机制。
