ISP Spring Seminar Series: The Role of Prenatal Experience and Infant Sleep in the Development of Early Childhood Executive Function
April 15, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Event Navigation
In this seminar, Cathi Propper, PhD, will focus on early predictors of cognitive outcomes in preschool-age children. Specifically, prenatal experiences such as stress, inflammation, and nutrition play a critical role in shaping childhood developmental trajectories and they differ by sociodemographic status. Prenatal experience may also influence infant sleep across the first year of life, which may act as a mediator of the relationship between prenatal experience and cognitive outcomes.
