Who we are

PEARL RESEARCH COLLABORATIVE:
P
lacental fEtAl mR​I London

Our lab explores the development of cognitive and social abilities from the earliest stages of life. Our research focuses on using advanced brain imaging techniques to explore developmental processes beginning in the fetal stages and continuing through childhood.
​
We are dedicated to advancing the understanding of how various factors influence brain development, with the goal to identify opportunities for early intervention to improve long term outcomes for children.
