Led by a research team of scientists from the University of Nottingham’s School of Physics and Astronomy, the study measured the brainwaves of two-year-old children using a quantum-based magnetoencephalography (MEG) scanner, providing the clearest picture of early childhood brain development so far. This wearable brain scanner was utilized to map the electrical activity of the brain. This work opens up new possibilities for tracking how critical early childhood developmental events alter brain function and for studying neurodevelopmental disorders such as autism.
